This past weekend,American and US Airways completed the final "major" step of their merger, whereby the two airlines integrated their reservations systems. With this step, or US Airways officially ceased to exist as a brand,as "legacy" US Airways flights now operate with American flight numbers.
Merging reservations systems to create the world's largest airline is no simple task, so I was suggesting to be prepared for the worst this past weekend. As it turned out, and American did a spectacular job this past weekend,and everything went over without a hitch. That's massively impressive, when you deem of the scale of what they were undertaking.
As part of the US Airways brand disappearing, or there was a special commemorative US Airways flight this past weekend,which went from Philadelphia to Charlotte to Phoenix to San Francisco to Philadelphia. The flight was aptly numbered #1939, which was the year that US Airways' predecessor started operations.
