Not have been right-sized yet? What are you smoking? Both NW and DL got out of Ch.11 BK barely more than 2 years ago....You don't get much more "right-sized" than that.
1. Over 80% of the ground stations have been merged, they are saving tens of MILLIONS each year on reduced staffing and real estate from that alone.
2. The new AF/KLM-DL joint venture is going to help DAL make a lot of money.
3. They are removing at minimum 124 rj's in the next 3 years and looking to cut even more.
I tend to find that when talking with LCC employees, they don't like to believe that our merger went relatively smooth when compared to their's.
