You were a national carrier, not a major.
We had the ATSB loan carrying us through along with GECAS and Airbus.
Funny if HP was so rich and bountiful, how come they had no money for the merger?
US East with Lakefield and Seabury and Associates raised all the money,
And you see US had the better name recognition, hence why it was kept.
And when Wolfe was hear, we won the highest ranking for service, can you say the same?
FAA never threatened to shut down US and never had the hand in every aspect of the operation and we were not limited to grow, cant say the same about HP, no can ya?
When you make an agreement to stand by what the arbiter rules, its binding. But you will find that out soon enough. Not our fault that you all are renegers, and can't live up to an agreement like honest, ethical, and decent people do. But, again, you will find that out soon enough. In the meantime, you better get out and fly those planes junior! Or else you will be fired for malingering. And enjoy those sub par wages, after all, its your fault you have them. LOL
Excuse me? America West was Major carrier, as defined by the DOT when an airline has more than 1 billion dollars in revenue in one fiscal year.
Do your homework, we were a major. And...we weren't days away from liquidation like you were....
In the first half of 1990, America West was reclassified as a major airline by the United States Department of Transportation, and the company's sales rose as the airline carried 40 percent more revenue passenger miles than it had in the previous year.

I was there, you weren't, you guys were arguing about how you hated your management, or something, as you were beginning your sad decline into irrelevance.
