The WSJ and Reuters are reporting that AWA and USAir are close to a deal and trying to get it done before the AWA shareholders meeting next week.
Reuters Article
This is going to be a disaster for our airline. Doug Parker has stated in the past that he wouldn't do anything to harm the employees of AWA or our shareholders. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be living up to his word.
My heart goes out to all of us that rely on AWA to put food on our table and provide for our families. My gut tells me that job losses maybe significant. As pilots, we are going to fight for every job. I hope the other work groups are ready to do the same.
I encourage all my fellow employees that hold shares to show up at next weeks meeting if you are off from work. We need to let them know how we feel.
Hopefully this will all turn out to be a bad dream and more reasonable voices will prevail!
