Really? How many of the most recent bankruptcies went that route? The answer is very, very few. Of course, those that closed up shop were also the smaller ones with no real value even in their FF programs so it is hard to say for certain, but a blanket assumption that the next airline to declare bankruptcy will get Ch11 instead of Ch7 is somewhat questionable to me.
