Is that extra $1 billion coming from creditors or US' bank account?
Parker said at the Senate hearing that they don't have anything even close to that in their bank account. It's all borrowed money. One more billion in debt...WOO HOO

I love this line from the DL pilots rolling billboard "CEO Doug Parker mortgaging your future!"

Looks like US is trying to do anything to get to see Delta's books.
