Who the hell is running Delta? I see a lot of Northwest decisions being made here!!!
Well at least their being offered severance packages. I just spoke with Trish from sort. Poor girl was trying to keep it togheter.........
Well IMO, this does not look well for Comair, unless they go to DTW, which I well, when I spoke to DICK Anderson, he gave very a bad feeling about that.
That was definitely part of Delta's plan. In order to get Washington to sign off of the merger between NW and Delta they had to prove that no Delta Jobs would be lost. So they spun everyone off into a new company. Now it looks like it's not a loss of a job by anyone really related to Delta. We know that D owns RHS, but RHS is not an airline so it basically just looks like they are ending a partnership with a contractor.
Next, the pilots and flight attendants at Comair will be spun into two separate companies outside of DCI.
