Compania aeriana americana Delta Air Lines a fuzionat cu rivala sa Northwest Airlines, formand cea mai mare companie mondiala dupa valoarea traficului, scriu agentiile internationale de presa.

Numele noii companii este Delta si are sediul in Atlanta, sud-estul Statelor Unite. Delta va avea zbouri in 66 de tari si peste 375 de orase din lume, mai multe destinatii decat orice alta companie.

Compania va avea 75 000 de angajati si o cifra de afaceri anuala de 35 de miliarde de dolari.

Noul operator va discpune de o flota de 800 de aparate de zbor si va ramane membru al aliantei Skyteam.

The Delta-Northwest Merger is a Done Deal

Citat :

Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines announced their merger plans last April, and several days ago anti-trust regulators at the U.S. Department of Justice signed off on the deal. With that, Northwest Airlines is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta. The merged airline, called Delta and headquartered in Atlanta, has approximately 75,000 employees worldwide. According to a Delta press release about the merger, the company "will distribute an equity stake to substantially all U.S.-based employees with international employees participating through cash payments in lieu of stock."

Delta's management has promised "that no frontline employees will be involuntarily furloughed as a result of the merger and that no hubs will be closed," and that they have "implemented a seniority protection policy that ensures that frontline employees of both airlines will be provided seniority protection through a fair-and-equitable process."

The two pilot groups have a single collective bargaining agreement with Delta. It remains to be seen whether or not the 21,000 flight attendants of the merged airline will ultimately have union representation. Northwest's flight attendants are unionized, while Delta's have not had a union.

Integrating the two work forces is already underway. I understand that Northwest crews are being fitted for their Delta uniforms, and that pilots, flight attendants, and customer service agents will begin wearing them on March 30, 2009.

Best wishes to everyone at the new Delta as they go through the process of integrating their operations. Here is a video tribute to the Delta-Northwest merger.
