The US AIR and DAL merger will not happen, and here's why....
DAL and NWA entered bankruptcy court in NY on the same day, same courthouse, same time.
I believe that this was carefully orchestrated, so that that the people and attorneys working on both of the reorganizations could essentially, work together, without having to travel accross the country. Additionally, having the same courthouse, judiciary, and staff would further enhance the efficiency of combinning DAL/NWA.
Texas Pacific Group's, David Bonderman, I believe is also a player in this deal.
I could be totally wrong, but having two major airlines file CH11, same courthouse, same time is more than just a coincidance.
I havent heard any creditors saying no yet. The overlap can be discussed and the PBGC is a creditor, which might put pressure on the Feds to help out their own agency. I'd say 50/50. Who ever thought AWA/USA would make a profit so soon? This industry is one of the trickiest to predict.

Parker wants to reduce capacity in the marketplace. This is a very stupid, and expensive, way to do it.
