American Airlines and US Airways stunned the aviation industry Thursday upon announcing the two air travel titans have combined in an $11 billion merger that sources say will unite the industry powerhouses into the worlds largest and most complete pain in the ass. Today we embark upon a bold and unprecedented new venture into customer frustration, American CEO Tom Horton said of the historic alliance, which analysts predict will pose an immediate threat to rivals United and Delta in the air travel industrys key areas of flight delays, lost luggage, and useless customer service. When you take our general administrative incompetence and integrate it with our new partners long-proven inability to meet flyers needs in any capacity, youve got a brilliant new model in passenger aggravation and travel plan disruption. This truly will be the leading entity in the hassle industry. Horton also confirmed the new multi-billion-dollar headache hopes to fuck up more than 4,000 flights a day.
