American Airlines to Attempt Purchase of TWA
American Airlines plans this week to buy Trans World Airlines in a move that may reshape U S air travel. TWA reportedly seeks Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection as a prelude to the takeover while American would acquire TWA assets and 49 percent of a new DC Air venture tied to the United US Airways merger. The deal would expand American’s hubs and could twist antitrust talks, with DC Air run by Robert Johnson and sharing takeoff slots at Reagan National.
