NWA Boosts Payout For CEO If He Stays For Merger
Northwest Airlines said it would boost the payout for Chief Executive Doug Steenland if he stays until its combination with Delta Air Lines is finished.
The new agreement also takes away a financial incentive for Steenland to leave in June.
Northwest added another $3.6 million to his payout if he leaves after the company changes hands, to a total of roughly $11.4 million, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday. The new money is based on Friday's share price and will rise or fall with it.

You have got to be kidding. Oil at $113, staffing at a minimum, and the BOD's enhances an already overly generous package. Where do these guys get the hutzpa. They would sell their mothers down the road if the 'shareholders' got a return. Perspective is everything, and these yahoos have definetly lost theirs..

You and I are just the peons that are supposed to sacrafice for them so 'them' can live like kings. Just glad the passengers just keep comming and laying down the millions of dollars that go into 'their' pockets. The flying public knows nothing about these hugh bonusus and perks. Why don't the Unions take out full page adds in the MSP newspaper and others and let the paying public find out what kind of management and BOD they have at NWA. Just the facts. That's all you have to print.
