Sen. Hatch meets with Jerry Grinstein, CEO of Delta Airlines, and other Delta executives to discuss the impact of US Airways’ proposed merger on Delta’s Salt Lake City hub. |
Washington – Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) released the following statement after learning that US Airways has withdrawn its bid to merge with Delta Air Lines: “We can all breathe easier now. This was the right decision, and it couldn’t have come sooner. Consolidation with US Airways could have seriously harmed Delta’s Salt Lake City hub and hurt Utah’s economy.”
