  2. A United – US Airways Merger? Cons Pros • United & US Airways wages are closely aligned and among the industry’s lowest, requiring no labor approvals before integration occurs • Expected savings from consolidation such as common IT platforms, fewer airport operations and maintenance centers • Duplicative city-pair networks offer great potential for reduced capacity/savings • US Airways flies all the same aircraft as United, except for its A330 wide-body and the 777 • Monopoly is less of an issue. The footprint of the combined entity would be roughly 28% smaller than that proposed a decade ago. • If over 95% of revenue is retained, incrementaloperating profitability is projected to be $800 million - $1.4 billion • A merger may require capacity/job-related promises in order to curry regulatory favor. This would disappoint Wall Street and may require a divestiture • Concentration in the Washington metro area could prove problematic • When neither carrier is failing, regulatory approval has proven more difficult
