A merger was announced this morning between American Airlines and US Airways. This has been a long expected outcome for both corporations. Many are surprised that the merger has taken so long, but then again, delays in the airline industry are more than common place.
Analyst have had mixed reaction to the final announcement of the deal. Some are speculating that taking one airline that has deep financial troubles and merging it with one with that has a history of poor customer service will only result in a non-profitable airline that nobody wants to fly.
More information is expected shortly from both companies as the lunacy of what they have accomplished sets in.
