I think all of the airlines will feel this. It's a little more than a blip, but New Orleans and Gulfport alone is not going to put Delta into bankruptcy. I think $70 a barrel oil is the straw that would break the camel's back. -Terry Trippler

They cannot continue to bleed red ink. Delta is going to get hurt a lot by this. Not just the oil prices, but the loss of flights they will experience over the next several days. It could be the one-two punch that makes the brain trust at Delta say it's time to go into Chapter 11 reorganization.

The game isn't over yet, ... but clearly I would say the score is Northwest 1, [labor] nothing.
