Looks like the Delta side is also giving the green light.

This is great news for everyone at Delta and Northwest. Congratulations! I wish we were in your shoes.
I think the success of the new super Delta is going to cause some other carriers to reconsider the case for mergers. Midwest already found out the hard way what happens when they tried to fend off a merger. Hopefully Continental learns from that mistake and makes the smart decision to merge before the new super Delta tears them apart.

The irony is, NWA probably saved AirTran.

Colors? Haha Delta should go back to the Classic paint scheme White with brown dirt highlights… Maybe they could also bring back the 727 and L1011. I guess they will be picking up the Dc9’s? are they going to keep those through the merger, sorry I haven’t been following it that much.

Sure wish they'd get a move on with this merger. I've got these 2 million frequent flier miles with Northwest and I'm growing weary of flying on their DC-9's and A-320's. That's of course assuming that the new airline will accept the NWA miles. If not, I'll donate them to the old freight dog pilot's home.
