Or...maybe shrinking enough to pass muster with another merger, with Delta as the “absorbed” party?
OTOH...Doesn’t look like any other employee groups looking down the barrel of a furlough. Which means Delta wants to grow. Who knows. Kinda early in the day for this brand of cray cray.
If the international partners are in bad shape, posible liquidation, there’s no other way they’ll have to grow organically vs JVs.
Those JVs won’t see money from us, because now everyone is by their own until recovery is achieved. We have planes in order, they will have to use them.
just IMHO
