New Delta aka old Northwest?

You might have heard this before, or maybe you haven't. But how much of the new Delta is really the old Northwest?

The answer is really simple.

Over half of the "new" Delta is composed of ex-Northwest managers.

For example lets look at the Corporate Leadership Team, which makes up the top executives at the "new" Delta.

Richard Anderson(CEO) - Northwest
Ed Bastian - Delta
Richard Hirst - Northwest
Mike Campbell - Delta
Ned Walker - Continental
Mike Becker - Northwest
Steve Gorman - Northwest
Glen Hauenstein - Delta
Hank Halter - Delta
Theresa Wise - Northwest

Total

Northwest 5, Delta 4, Continental 1

Oh, I almost forgot.

Mr. Doug Steenland who was the CEO at Northwest is not on the Corporate Leadership Team, he got an even better spot!

Mr. Doug Steenland (Northwest) is the latest addition to the Delta Board of Directors, and if this doesn't scare you...well, it should!
