Default Can anything stop Delta & NorthWest now

Being the Justice Department said yes and they have integrated the pilots lists. Can anything stop the merge/buyout at all now?

No, in case you didn't know it's already a DONE deal. It can't be stopped because the transaction has already been completed.

Should I be upset that my displacement bid to the mightiest of the mighty 4 engine jets wasn't honored: CV880?

Misunderstood the thread title. I thought the OP was a SWA guy worried we are on our way to slap them back to Texas

Just kidding, but we are preparing the welcome to MSP party. The MSP 757 bid packet has Midway trips in it again.......haven't seen those since we ran ATA outta town

That is awesome. SWA knows that if it diverges from their business plan too much they get slapped.

As it should be. I'm glad we have a management group that doesn't find it acceptable to invite your competition to a backyard B-B-Que.

As Mr. Smithers once said, "Release the hounds!".
