Delta and Northwest are now Delta. I am a Delta SkyMiles member and prefer Delta over other airlines. Tina is a Northwest WorldPerks member and prefers Northwest since they’re one of the few US airlines that flies from the US to the Philippines. So, now we’re all just one big happy family.
The next rumored merger is Continental + United. If that happens, Continental will probably leave SkyTeam and join the Star Alliance. which means no more earning Delta or Northwest frequent flier miles on Continental flights which is sad because Continental is one of the best run airlines in the country.
I hope another carrier like American Airlines buys USAirways and dissolves that much hated brand. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, “USAirways is run by a bunch of glorified ghetto Greyhound hustlers who have to rape their customers in order to go in search of their next crack fix.”
