American Airlines files for bankruptcy
November 29, 2011 -- Thomson Reuters News & Insight
Stephen Selbst says the Chapter 11 filing by American Airlines and its parent company, AMR Corp., is light on details about how the company will seek to lower its wage-and-benefit costs. That lack of specificity is probably because the company is negotiating with its unions about wage and pension issues and does not want to disturb those talks, says Stephen, who has worked on a number of airline bankruptcy filings from a variety of perspectives.
