US Airways (US) continues to explore whether a merger with American Airlines (AA) would be a good move, but consolidation is not a strategic necessity, US chairman and CEO Doug Parker said Wednesday.
Parker described talks about a potential merger with AA, which is operating under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, as rumors and speculation (ATW Daily News, March 2).
