US Airways Wings News

What is the recent news from this major airline, you might be asking?

The last time everyone heard about them, US Airways wings planned to do a major merger. In fact, if it will happen, it will be the biggest merger in history. The proposed merger came from American Airlines company.

When both (and if) companies will merge, they will form a biggest airline company in the world. But so far this isn’t happening.

US Airways wings were sued by the government.

When government heard about the merger they opened a case against it. They told the public that the merger will actually hurt consumers, because this will be the biggest airline company in the world and thus they will be able to greatly influence flight prices. It will be almost like monopoly, especially in US market. So they are worried about it.

US Airways wings and American Airlines on the other hand are heavily protesting. They will be defending their case in November, 2013. They want to prove that the merger will actually do good for consumers and both companies.

There is no doubt about US Airways Wings Company

In the past few years their financial situation was incredibly bad. Two times they were almost bankrupt (filed for bankruptcy two times, but government helped them). And they are not doing good at the moment. Still losing money. So they desperately need this merger to happen.

It will allow US Airways wings to get cheaper prices on flights. So far this company is incredibly expensive, despite their bad customer service. They have the best baggage handling system though.

But they are continuously improving, so it should be better and better in the near future (if they will not go out of business before that). Plus American Airlines will help greatly. 

The biggest stake in the company will belong to American Airlines and it’s something like 3 to 1. US Airways wings just own 25% or so. The new company headquarters will be located in Texas. That’s where American Airlines headquarters are.

So everyone is waiting for the court. Who will win? Both parties have gathered huge amount of witnesses. For government there will be 12 witnesses and 3 experts and for both airline companies CEOs and top executives will act as witnesses.

US Airways wings cool stuff

Have you heard about US Airways wings?

With the latest merger they are going to become one of the biggest airline companies in the world! They have a very long history. In fact, they have started just before World War 2, in 1939. Originally, they started as an airmail service. But several years later, after starting the company they realized they have to transition to passenger service - passenger airlines were getting more and more popular each year.

Through the years they developed a huge network over all USA and some of the Mexico, and in recent decade or two they also opened flight routes to Europe and South America.

US Airways wings were known for bad customer service.

Luckily, this changed over the years. This company is still very far from the best customer experience, but it's reasonable. US Airways wings also snatched a first place for baggage delivery in recent years. They had the lowest percentage of baggage losses in the industry, which is quite a feat.

Over the years they had many mergers and partnerships. This helped them to survive bankruptcy (2 times) and develop their flight network even further. Now the latest merger with American Airlines will make this company the biggest in the world. Although American Airlines will secure the biggest stake in the company, by far - something like 3 to 1.

But it's good for US Airways Wings nevertheless.

Their financial situation after 2000 was getting considerably worse. They had higher prices than competition and worse service so that was one of the causes of bankruptcy.
