Somewhat true. AA bought only some of the TWA assets but not all, and AA assumed of only some of the TWA liabilities, but not all. IMHO you received far more than most people have ever received with a company that went Chapt 11, and they had somewhat of a business relationship with that company. As for "good will", with the NEW IMPROVED route structure, my best guess is most former TWA flyers will not be near a NEW IMPROVED AA airport and route structure. Honestly I really wish you received more, but I cannot think of a valid and justifiable reason for this to happen.

Out of curiosity, exactly what do propose is fair in a case like this (assuming you are a totally neutral party).
