Thanks for being the one to post this important news.

One (WSJ) article quotes Maya Lieberman as saying something very much like that:

American Chief Executive Doug Parker “has been pounding this message of not being complacent,” she said. “We have to be totally paranoid and totally worried about every single thing that could possibly go wrong.”
IMO, that's exactly the proper attitude. And if this systems integration goes smoothly, it will be another feather - no, an entire feather bonnet - in Ms. Lieberman's hat.
