International Plans

And more profit (sharing) able. It's here to stay. JV + equity stake is the international "merger" of the future. The ME3 have caught on and United is looking at Avianca.

TWA had its treasury plundered by Carl Icon and never recovered. If that was not enough to kill them Google Karabu ticketing arrangement that allowed Icon to rape them all the way to the grave!
What will put Delta back into chapter 11 or kill the airline is letting its costs get out of control. The current management team is doing a good job on cost control with the exception of management saleries. They can't seem to get a handle on that have let it spin out of control.

Are you a pilot? For Delta? Did you take a 40% pay cut, lose your pension, have your peers at other airlines fly the same jet same seat and make 100k more than you (with a guaranteed pension)??? The only thing out of control is a troll like you. Let me guess, your wife makes the money in your family and you just like to fly.....

I took a 42% pay cut to be exact.
Wife won't work. Give me a hint on her getting a job.
My pension was converted into multiple pots of money not lost.
A. MPP plan
B. Note money
C. Claim Money
D. PBGC benefit
E. Merger stock
F. DC plan going forward
I have not had any peers making 100k more then me and for at least the last 4 years Delta has had a higher average wage then any US passenger airline.
I do remember when Delta was on the verge of liquidation. We have come a long way from then. If in 2006 I told many pilots where we would be in 2016 they would have said not one chance in a hundred we would make the kind of recovery. Most were so sure of the airlines demise that those who could jumped ship!

Yeah Delta has a made a great comeback that's for sure...but mostly on the backs of the employees. The busted all the unions the could with the NW merger and had union leadership at ALPA & PAFCA that kissed their ass the entire time. Well...almost...up until last year it seems.

I never sat on the airplane and had the passenger next to me say I should have taken Fedex.
