American Airlines last week asked the US Dept. of Transportation to approve a "modification" to its application to win route authority to China, saying it now wants to operate service to Beijing from Chicago-O'Hare rather than Dallas/Fort Worth to comply with flight distance provisions in its labor agreement with pilots.

To win the China service authority, expected to be awarded this month, AA is competing against United Airlines, which wants to link Beijing to its Washington Dulles hub; Northwest Airlines, which has proposed service between Detroit and Shanghai, and Continental Airlines, which would serve Shanghai from Newark.

Delta Air Lines

Delta Air Lines, as expected, intends to present a stand-alone plan that values it higher than the US Airways' offer. Citing people familiar with the matter, the Wall Street Journal on Monday reported that Delta's plan, which could be filed as early as Tuesday, values the company at USD USD

Delta Air Lines has also said it will submit the plan to creditors by mid-December. Delta's plan, which will likely be more reliant on equity than cash, will establish a new mark that could force US Airways to raise its bid or encourage another airline to enter the fray.

The range, representing the airline's estimated market value after emerging from bankruptcy, is down from the USD$12 billion to USD$14 billion range the airline was calculating a few weeks ago, the paper said.

Delta Air Lines, US Airways

Delta Valuation Rises Above US Airways' Bid. Bond investors are betting that Delta Air Lines is worth more than the USD$8.4 billion offer made by US Airways. Delta's bonds traded at around 67 cents on the dollar on Friday, traders said. With a claims pool estimated to be between

USD$14 billion and USD$16 billion, current bond prices imply a valuation for the carrier of USD$9.4 billion to USD$10.7 billion. Even at the low end, it's higher than US Airways' cash-and-stock bid currently valued at around USD$8.4 billion and suggests investors are anticipating a sweeter offer. At least one alternative for creditors is in the works: Delta's stand-alone plan. Dec 15, 2006

US Dept. of Justice almost certainly would review any proposed mergers and already has signaled its interest in examining the potential US Airways takeover of Delta Air Lines. DOJ likely will pay particular attention to consolidation's effects on fares and service options for passengers. When the department officially rejected the proposed United Airlines/US Airways merger in July 2001 (it first was proposed in May 2000), it concluded that the resulting airline was not in consumers' best interests.
