Tom Horton Discusses the Importance of Safety

In a Special Jetwire issued earlier today, Tom Horton discussed the importance of safety at work each and every day. “June is National Safety Month, and this is a great opportunity to reflect on the role we all play in getting our customers and colleagues to their destinations safely thousands of times a day,” Tom said. “Each one of us has a part in maintaining a safe and injury-free workplace, and continually improving safety throughout our operation. Your active involvement in promoting a positive safety culture and working together to prevent injuries and accidents will help American continue our enviable safety record.”

» Court Approves Disclosure Statement; American to Begin Soliciting Creditors’ Votes on Plan of Reorganization

Yesterday, Bankruptcy Court Judge Sean Lane approved the Disclosure Statement filed in connection with American’s proposed Plan of Reorganization, also known as the POR or the Plan, successfully completing another step in our restructuring process. The Disclosure Statement is a key document which describes our business, the Plan of Reorganization and other matters relevant to the decision of whether to vote to accept our Plan. Judge Lane’s determination that the Disclosure Statement provides adequate information enables American to begin shortly to solicit votes on the Plan from creditors and stakeholders shortly. American also received approval of the Support and Settlement Agreement, with creditors collectively holding approximately $1.6 billion in prepetition unsecured claims. This agreement reflects key support for our Plan. Find out more in classic Jetnet’s Restructuring Resource Center.

Qatar Says it Won’t Launch Boeing 787-10X

Qatar Airways will not be a launch customer for Boeing’s next passenger jet, a stretched version of its 787 Dreamliner, Chief Executive Akbar Al Baker said. The oneworld member-elect, one of the world’s fastest growing carriers, has expressed interest in the 323-seat 787-10X, prompting speculation that it would be among the first batch of buyers. Boeing is expected to announce a formal launch of the aircraft as soon as the June 17-23 Paris Airshow, although the timing is uncertain. Boeing simply says that the launch could be within months, subject to board approval. The stretched 787-10X will compete with the A350-900, the main model of Airbus’s newest jet family.

Delta Deals Memphis Another Hit

Delta dealt Memphis a major, if not surprising, blow, announcing the airport will lose 34 flights, and will cease to be a Delta hub as of Sept. 3. The reduction will mark the first time in nearly 30 years Memphis hasn’t had a major airline hub. Delta said it would drop Memphis from 94 flights a day to 60 a day as part of a previously announced push to eliminate flying on 50-seat aircraft. The move will leave Memphis with 29 cities served nonstop by Delta, down from the current 42 cities. It will be the carrier’s second ramp-down in less than a year, following a reduction in January from 122 flights a day.
