Acquiring Carrier

It certainly does if any of the unions could get an arbitrator to agree that America West is deemed the "acquiring carrier". Most of the consessionary contracts had snap-back clauses if there was a change in control of the airline.

As skyguy stated, some employee groups have snap-back provisions that are triggered by a change of control. For them it is strictly a financial question of some importance, but has nothing to do with their interaction with fellow employees from the "other" side.

In all other respects, it makes absolutely no difference whatsoever (although it does, and will, continue to come up).....
