News Wrap: American Airlines, U.S. Airways merge into world's largest carrier

In our news wrap Monday, the merger between American Airlines and U.S. Airways became official, making it the world's largest airline. The new carrier will operate under the American Airlines name. Also, ice and snow across the nation brought down power lines and led to the cancellation of 1,600 flights.
