AMR, US Airways Said to See Merger Talks Into Midweek

This article deals with a huge merger between US Airways and AMR. The deal is said to be worth $11 billion and would create the largest carrier company in the world. This deal will be something to keep an eye on because of how big of a deal it is with money and just in general. Creating a company this big will be huge for the companies and will create an interesting situation with people's jobs as well...

  1. Mergers usually look good when it is this big. However, I doubt if this is going to be good news for the consumers. This seems to me to be another creation of another "too big to fail" corporation. Theoretically, a monopoly might be formed and when it is, costs are reduced to raise profits. For an instance: fewer available and more costly seats plus annoying extra charges for first bags, for poor food, and for an Internet connection.
