Especially "Not" US Airways

[Barbell]

The effort by both banks, which are Delta creditors, is aimed at creating a second group of creditors with some say in the airline's restructuring, it said.

Do you not even comprehend what you write? Incidentally, why do you even care?

They are putting together a second group of creditors. That means there's already one group that supports the transaction. Just in case you missed it, there needs to be some sway to consider this proposal. They aren't just going to throw a Hail Mary and say, "Golly, this here US Airways bid is fantastic!" It's good business to negotiate. I imagine that fine point is lost on you.

Perhaps you can chew on this one for a while:

"They do have a stake, but probably not enough to block it," Ray Neidl, an airline analyst with Calyon Securities in New York, said of the pilots union.

They are not a part of the creditors committee. They have NO vote. They are trying to have some say. The law does not allow for it. They are simply making headlines much like the button campaign

You may want to spend some time studying the issues and the players. Or better yet tell your friends in the castle to try running an airline well rather than starting ponzi schemes to cover the fact they can't. Oh and BTW, your tested and true web site took over an hour this afternoon to book a simple ticket.....

The only folks who have a vote have passed once on the offer. That is a fact. Nothing to chew on about that.

So how do you like your crow.

Thanks! I'll do that. Where do you recommend I start?

Re all the comments downplaying the Delta buttons ... of course the people displaying the buttons have no direct vote in the matter. If they did, they wouldn't need buttons. They would simply vote it down. The point is to let the creditors know that there are people opposed to this deal.

If creditors believe that a hostile takeover will result in a lot of pissed off employees and a lot of pissed off customers, it might not be such a great idea. The airline business is a tough one, and if you don't have the support of the employees or customers, you are dead.

Too bad this sentiment is lost on the so called leaders (and Jerry Glass)of LCC.

ALPA is on the Creditors Committee at DL.

And at US the IAM and ALPA were both members of the Creditors Committee.

Yes they are. They have vote. The bond holders don't and won't. ALPA is against the merger as is now rumored to be the case with two other larger memebers of the committee. And if one of the two is in fact against the merger as suspected, it is point, set, match for the SECOND time.

So what was your point or are you just catching up after being "off" for a few days? Christmas is coming so I guess now is a good time to start working on those popcorn strings to put on the tree.

The words in your post, "rumored", "suspected", and "if",,say it all.
Only time will tell how this will work out.

 

[does this plane go to paris]

And, it will happen. Unless the Delta employees can come up with $9 Billion, or more!

ROTFLMAO!

It's kind of sad, though. Apparently, the employees do not realize they are powerless.

found this on a old topic right after the hostile take over was annuonced.

And I suspect l4pi will have a few quotes from it to serve along with the crow that he's preparing.....

Thanks for the bump as it will be one less to look for during our buffet hour. So much crow to serve up and so little time.......

I do believe they did say it all, didn't they?

But since we are here, how do you like your crow. We have three different flavors. Salty (thanks to your wonder boy doogie....he has been told to pound some more for the fourth and FINAL time), hot and nuclear? Of course the nuclear is reserved for certain 320 pilots and other know it alls who post here.

Ooh, I guess this is going to hurt, then. *Sorry*

Delta bondholders form group to back US Air bid​

Hummmm. And I guess your web site was beta tested as well.

Let's see that makes you 0 for at least two......

Going to be a lot of crow eating around these parts......

Note date of post.......

Yeah... buttons. That oughta work!

They did....

Delta is certainly not my preferred choice either, feelings mutual. Problem is Money Talks, and petty b*llshit walks.

and doogies taking a hike

What a bunch of friggen Idiots. Keep Delta mine..Yes the same Delta the cut my wages and benefits, and screwed the retirees...Yes, please keep it mine. Deltat never was theirs, and never will be. :down:

LMAO!!!! Like passing out a stupid button will keep the creditors from taking the 8 billion, which i think they will

Hummm. Saving two servings of the nuclear for you.....

L4PI, did you go to the USA320 school of cut and paste? I must say, you seem to be a quick study! I knew it...y'all are really best buds!

Thank you very much. He is by far the best to learn from.
