As a US3 (almost US2) I have to say that I like our livery...the planes are crisp, sleek looking, and I like the navy blue. That said, I have to agree that if PHX is to be a hub having a bunch of dark colored planes is a bad idea. Perhaps a white background with the US colors and the AW fonts? US should change its 757 back to F12 and indeed the whole fleet should be a minimum of F12. The Dividend miles program is great...looks like Silver & Gold translate to similar levels on AW, but AW top tier is at 75K and US at 100K - Maybe split that and give top tier at 85K? Uniforms definitely need to change...I like the US plane colors but their uniforms are tired & old looking...need a more modern uniform.
There's my 2 cents...I think this will be a great partnership and definitely make it easier to go West!
