Bipartisan senators in Congress recently warned a proposed merger between United Airlines and American Airlines would cut competition and raise fares. They urged federal regulators to closely scrutinize the deal to protect consumers and preserve competition. Senators said consolidation between two of the nation's largest carriers could reduce seat choices on many routes and weaken pressure to keep prices low.
