Jet Blue's announced loss got me to thinking. Yes, I know they still made operating income for the year, but here is my question:
If Jet Blue can't make it, is there any chance that ANY airline can be started and grown successfully? Indy Air is gone, Vanguard is gone, National is gone...
Jet Blue was started with sufficient capital, a great management team (at least that's what I read, maybe some JBLU guys can comment) and a short-term monopoly on JFK (no slots).
If they can't make money with all that, who can?
