airways and ual
taking a look at airways there is one common theme that exists since wolfee was there..."fix it up paint it and sell it!"
That was the plan prior to the merger and is still the plan. Bronner wants his a return on his
investment. Almost every move airways has made is from the post merger blue print:
1. furlough excess pilots
2. eliminate f100's md 80's 737-200's
3. reduce exposure in pit ie trng center and admin. (pit 737200 sitting in phx at the awa ctr)
4. take down of bwi (monopoly in Wash)
5. expand rj scope
6. expand intl out of clt and phl
Ronno Dutta (former ual mgmt) is a board member of the rsa and airways group.
UAL could find exit financing via Bronner thus securing the ATSB backing. Bronner can get a maximum rate
of return by fusing the two together. UAL needs to resolve its bond issues in SFO and LAX and the pensions.
Like it or not US Air is 37% of the air traffic east of the river. Couple that with UAL 's network out west
and the pacific it adds roughly 1 billion in added revenue to the combined carrier.
So Bronner will do whatever he can to combine the two so he can get his money. He also
holds the liens to 15-20 767's on the ual property.
Regarding the employees and sen integration, never easy but can be a win win if done properly.
Best of luck to those on the street and God Bless.
