It's the current rumor floating around the line. But even if the divestiture is off for now, it can never really be off. If AMR comes across an opportunity where the divestiture is appealing to the bean counters, they will likely do that.

The thing about AMR is that no one really knows what will happen until it happens. In my opinion that might be because the people who make those decisions don't know what they're going to do until the last minute in many cases.

Business is too fluid to have a lot of long term planning and this industry is too volatile for stability. That's just a generality and my opinion.

That also means things can swing towards favoring pilots suddenly too. Just like all the flowthroughs and sudden upgrades.
