Anyone seen that new SWA TV commercial about pulling over a plane?

Thanks for letting us beat you in 2 areas this month.....SWA #1 in passenger complaints...or lack there of...and beat Delta we were #11 out of 12 for lost bags....yes, Delta was #12......we beat you again....should I go on?

I personally beat you in 4 layovers. 3 in Europe, and one in Argentina. But, you did beat me in ELP layovers, AMA turns, LBB throwups, and MAF shtsz. Good for you! You lose.


Bye Bye---General Lee

Last time I checked , we are still making more money per seat filled without charging for bags than anyone else, so what u say makes 0 sense, clarify if I am wrong....please do

Extra profits is better for your company, right? Maybe extra profits means more PROFIT SHARING? It will for some carriers. More later on that. So, when will the Volaris guys start flying Mexico for you?

Did anyone catch the SWA commercial where they change the tire and the comment one pilot makes about flying "15000 flights per year"? Now I know it is a joke but kind of ironic coming from SWA pilot(s), the original work for less, PFT, no pension, fly 1000 hr/year under cutters.

I have to ask, how many this board who were SWA qualified (met their mins) prior to 911 (remember when all the career majors like DAL/UAL/AA were hiring) actually applied there? I remember the pages from my 1997 Air Ink salary data for DAL/AAA/AA/UAL were worn thin but the SWA and AWA pages were fingerprint free.

Now the post 911 puppy mill (and MIL) guys think a career at SWA/AT/JB is all the rage.

OK, I'll bite. If you break it down to money per seat, you are dead wrong.

2nd Q 8-K SEC data,

Southwest
Income($112.0Mil) / Rev Pax (23.05Mil) = $4.86 profit per passenger

Allegiant
Income($28.1Mil) / Rev Pax (1.54Mil) = $18.25 profit per passenger

Alaska
Income($84.0Mil) / Rev Pax (4.17Mil) = $20.14 profit per passenger

To you, every SWA guy makes more than every DL pilot..... That really isn't the case on APC.com, but you knew that. And, when the rates become equal or better in the next contract at the legacy, you will surely change your stance, right? There will be very little to brag about then for those guys. Your arguments lead nowhere, just like your RJ to Dayton.
