No worries about the comment.
Yes, an aircraft can be at full capacity, and just break even.
But I really don't think it applies to ALL the flights.
I also agree that it is sometimes better to operate and loose, than not operating at all.(to MINIMIZE loses) ECON 101,
but how long can companies sustain their loses before closing their doors? I still think they are making "SOME" profit.SOME carriers of course! or else they would be out of business or heavily in debt(life support).
Finally, you will definitely think I am crazy for this, but yes I am considering buying stock on UAL. Just throw about $100 dollars just to see what will happen in case it turns around in the long term.It's better than the slots in Vegas. Imagine the return if the stock price climbs to a DAL status or FEX! If it survives of course,if not what's $100 bucks!
