I think that if any of these mergers take place it is going to be awesome for US. Think about it, look how hard the US/HP merger was... And this merger happened when the economy was growing. If US focuses on bringing stability and value to their own product, they can be there to pick off the frustrated NW/DL customers. US made it post merger, as a profitable airline, with its own share of problems. US was lucky to be merging during good times. believe me, this merger is going to be expensive, and full of labor problems. US has a head start...
All I can say about the DL/NW merger is "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it!"
