I haven’t reported on all the merger stuff for a while because honestly without the backing of the pilots I felt there was little chance of it happening.
Delta’s pilots are apparently now behind the deal, so it’s only a matter of time before the announcement is made.
What can we expect now?
Higher fares, less available mileage seats, closed hubs (Cincinnati and Memphis have little chance for survival), and more merger activity.
Worse yet, this will allow Continental, arguably the best domestic network carrier, to buy back their golden share from Northwest and pursue their own merger opportunities…
