NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Delta Air Lines will name Richard Anderson as its new chief executive on Tuesday, people familiar with the situation told the Wall Street Journal.
Anderson would replace Delta's current CEO Gerald Grinstein, who said he would retire after leading the airline through bankruptcy proceedings, the paper reported.
The company is expected to announced Anderson as its new CEO after the close of financial markets Tuesday, the Journal said.
Anderson is currently a board member of Northwest Airlines Corp., which he formally headed, and an executive vice president at United Health Group, according to the Journal.
Spokespersons for Delta and United Health declined to comment to the Journal.
If this in fact is true, how long do you think it will be before Delta and Northwest unite, with Anderson becoming the CEO of the combined airlines?
