A district court in Tel Aviv, Israel has issued an injunction against Trans World Airlines that prohibits the carrier from moving any of its assets out of Israel.

According to Globes, a local business newspaper, the injunction will remain in force until a hearing scheduled for next Sunday (1 April). The ruling allows the airline to move any assets needed for the regular operation of flights.

The injunction was awarded at the request of TWA employees who, according to the Globes report, 'received several telegrams from the company's management in the United States containing some unusual orders to send to the United States a series of spare parts and components worth an estimated USD200,000.'

TWA employees are concerned that American Airlines, a US airline set to purchase TWA, is to cease all services to Israel due to economic reasons. The workers claim that the route is profitable.

There is no America without labor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other.

For your sake, I hope your right about UAL swallowing LCC up.  LCC has the highest costs, weakest network, and network thats overly dependednt on RJ's.  AA is clearly not interested in a merger.  Some codeshare until the fleet grows enough, but thats about it.

Good luck to all.
What kind of codeshare would LCC be interested in with AA?  Star Alliance provides way better opportunities.  AA keeps forgetting it is the one in chapter 11 and may not be able to control it's own future.

I guess a toss up.  Both would be good for US Airways. As for me as a pilot?  

Delta: Lots of overlap, synergies=fuloughs.  

American:  Over a thousand pilots on furlough already & American talking about laying off and additional 15,000 employees during the bankruptcy process.  The American pilots no doubt will try and put furloughed pilots ahead of active, judging by their past behavior.

What gives APA the right to do something like that?  Something exactly like the East has attempted (and continues to attempt) to do to the West Pilots?  AA would NEVER do that...would they?
