Here it Comes, Gen...SWA To ATL!?

[Heavy Set]

Nice spin General...

It's going very well for us in LGA. Planes are completely full. You should know that we can't increase our departures because of the slot requirements.

What's that have to do with ATL departure numbers?

What is the difference between having a certain number of slots, and a certain number of gates? You are restricted for both when it comes to growth. Very little growth potential when there are limits.

 

[Scope out RJ's]

Thats why I make more as an FO then you will ever see again at your DELTA. playtime is over back to kindergarden $ITBRICK.

Giving out favors in the mens' room for $5 a pop isn't counting towards your southwest income, or maybe it does? Is that how you got that PFT type? Keep trying bravodoosh your tetorts are as pathetic as your "side jobs.":laugh:

SWA is everything wrong with the industry... race to the bottom? It all started there.

But you guys are all so lame; who gives a $hit about which airline is better? We're all in it for the buck and to enjoy flying the line as much as possible. How can you honestly look forward to your company competing so fiercely in the market that it means your competitors pilots might take pay cuts or possibly be furloughed?

What a sick world we live in when we forget about being professional airmen and instead pretend that we are part of the boardroom crowd?

Told you it was coming.....

-Like I previously stated, all the bad ju-ju Delta has been laying out since the merger will come back around..... Just wait and see how fast all the ATL passengers, former employees and former investors RA has hosed will clamor all over each other to get onto an airline with a comparable domestic route structure! $59 each way-you pompus tool!

-Enjoy!

Why is someone proud of $59 fares? God that's annoying.

Maybee someone who doesn't realize it took 30% paycuts by everyone else to get yours to be the highest paying.

Maybee someone who doesn't realize that their only competitive ace in the hole in the past (hedging) is no longer a secret.

Your average gate agent and ramper's longevity is probably 15 years lower than DL's. In a couple years, what's gonna happen then?

Such a great time in MSP that you guys are eliminating 2 daily flights to MDW, and you're flying half full airplanes while I'm stuck sitting in the JS or fourth on WN flights. BTW, You'd be amazed how many MSP passengers express to me their excitement to have SWA in MSP during my commutes. Even Business travelers.

the only reason the flights are full is because the fares are still probably $39 one way. One the company starts subsidizing its own customer base, it'll go down and your ass can sit in one of the many empty seats.

The differences are pretty clear. 7 flight slot restriction in LGA, that's it.

Single gate... run as many flights as we can push through. (No slot limit)

But General didn't elude to the difference, he lumps them together.

I like having this many types of jets. That means we have the correct jet on the correct route. That will mean huge profits, and deeper pockets than we have today.
