It would appear that would be the more difficult merger to pull off. However, Gordon Bethune and Pardus are saying that DAL/NWA would be more difficult. I don't think anyone has a clue what is going on. I think what is going down is gonna surprise us all and in the end I'll bet Air France will own at least 25% of whatever becomes of DAL/UAL/NWA. I'm starting to think maybe Air France is the entity that is pushing for the merger here.
