Dallas, TX (July 18, 2003) – American Airlines isn’t the only airline trying to revive its failing company from the abyss of bankruptcy. According to recent reports, Midwest Airlines negotiated concessions with employees and creditors to keep the airline out of bankruptcy court.
'This can mean great deals for summer vacationers who now have more choices in selecting a carrier,' said travel expert John Krieger. 'Once the darling of the industry, Midwest Airlines has been plagued by every factor facing the major airlines.'
Midwest reported that it would follow the lead of competitors and launch a low-fare service this summer to cater to vacationers seeking bargains. Midwest earned its reputation catering to business travelers with all their added comforts.
'The move by Midwest to offer low-fares and their wiliness to attract new customers demonstrates their commitment to their airline and their survival,' said Mr. Krieger. 'Does this just mean they will serve Oreos instead of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies? Who knows, but we do know that it means savings for travelers.'
Midwest Airlines and subsidiary Midwest Connect serve a combined 37 cities with 280 flights each weekday and an average 8,000 daily passengers. Midwest and Midwest Connect have 2,800 employees.
