Saw this article today and was surprised by their 80% load factor this summer.

Seemed like he tried to portray them in an overall positive light. I hope people would hate being nickle and dimed for everything and constantly being hustled like being in el barrio viejo mercado.

It's the WSJ. Of course they like them. The WSJ probably thinks their employees are overpaid too.

Would it be wrong for a JetBluer to refuse a jumpseat to a Skyhounder? Just a random thought. Some folks believe we brought down the industry but jeez, the Skyhound project is just ridiculous.

It would be wrong to deny (or grant) the jumpseat to anyone based soley upon what airline they work for.

No Gojet pilot will ever be offered a jumpseat on my aircraft. Ever.

Let me confirm it for you....you did help bring down the industry....now refusing a jumpseat to another startup carrier's pilot is just hypocritical....

Did they cross struck work?? Then you have your answer.....

captains often ask customers to raise their hands if they got the $10 seats to show other customers the promotion is real. The carrier's average one-way ticket is less than $100.

...don't think I could bring myself to do that.... and Captain should be capitalized, even at SkyBus.

Actually, I believe unless it is in front of a name it would not be capitalized.
