It seems that whenever there is a merger, within 10 years one of the carriers route structures has disappeared (reason for the merger) but all of the personnel and other problems from a merger remains. What remains of the Western structure at Delta, what remained of PSA structure after the AAA merger, what remained at Pan Am of National, TWA at American, on and on. It appears to me that after the initial synergy of the merger, the managers get uncomfortable with a route structure that was unfamiliar with them in the first place and they begin to dump it. Just an observation.
