Delta: Will fly its already extremely outdated, laughably uncompetitive 767-300ER business cabin on premium TATL routes into 2030.

Also Delta: Won't operate narrowbody aircraft with brand new seats on TATL routes because of "brand issues."

Good interview with IAG CEO Luis Gallego in Spanish daily El Pais.

TL/DR: a potential TAP deal would give IAG a big boost in Brazil; Qatar Airways is IAG's main into-Asia strategy for now; and he is unconcered with Turkish's investment in Air Europa.
Luis Gallego (IAG): “La portuguesa TAP encaja mejor con nosotros que en Lufthansa y Air France-KLM”
El consejero delegado del grupo de Iberia y British Airways cree que no tendrá escollos en Bruselas como los que frenaron la toma de Air Europa

That’s not what he said. He said the money for Essential Air Service routes will run out but that has absolutely nothing to do with ATC.

What will happen is after that first paycheck is missed, and this applies to ALL federal workers, the mental toll of financial uncertainty becomes a huge problem.
