Not bragging, not flame-bait, just a comment on the state of the industry:
From Saturday's Chicago Tribune:
"The combined market capitalization of the six U.S. legacy carriers just outpaces that of Southwest Airlines."
Market Capitalization
As of Friday's market close, in billions
US Airways $695.3 million
Continental $1.69
United $1.81
American $1.85
Northwest $1.98
Delta $2.05
Combined Total $10.07 billion
Southwest $9.31
In a related story, United's Glenn Tilton received $10.3 million last year.
