Well there are ppl I know on their (AS) merger committee that see it the same way.
Told two years ago, two to three years, then I was told no way. Better bennies without. With all of our transcons they are taking over I wonder.
Also, on DFW, they seem to have shut the gate agents up a bit. Our EVP Operations lives out there. I guess he talked to them a lot. Still lots o stuff going on out there.
