If AA and US merge what will happen to the TLV route, as AA has a judgement against them from the former TWA Agents.
There is no America without labor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other.

Unless they filed Chapter 11 in Tel Aviv, me thinks not. The judgement is from the Israeli courts, not a US court, so I doubt it is gone.

AA broke their CBA in regard to Severance pay for the employees they laid off. And yes its still in effect.

From 2001:

Quote

"In addition, American reviewed Israeli employment law and TWA's severance obligations to its employees," the written response added. "If American began operating TWA's service to Tel Aviv, but later had to discontinue it for financial reasons, American might be expected to take on TWA's obligations to pay severance to its employees, which could total as much as $9 million to $18 million.
