Powers added that jetBlue plans to cut its transcontinental business by 30 percent this quarter, but will boost its presence in the Caribbean by the same amount. It expects to grow in the Caribbean by 40 percent in 2009.
The carrier's Caribbean expansion plans will be aided as it grabs more gates at Florida's Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, Powers said. JetBlue is expanding to 7 gates there -- a major origination point for the Caribbean -- from 4 gates previously.

I found a 3 bedroom house on a canal with a slip for $1600 and for an extra $150 a month includes a 22ft Boston Whaler. Is less than 3 miles from a few dive sites

I think I may just bid down there and scuba ( in shallaw water) and fish between flights

Jetblue can never compete with spirit. I get paid 20 percent less than jetblue. Plus I give 2 percent of my pay to alpa....why don't you finally buy us so I can get a raise....

Jetblue will hurt American more that they hurt spirit with any Caribbean expansion.

Spirit only markets to those who expect nothing but a seat. Jetblue markets to those who expect a seat, plus service and respect. American markets to those who expect a seat, some service and some respect. Spirit's got nothing to worry about.

If Jetblue decides to go after Spirit's tarket market, it will only degrade their current level of service; a situation that will undermine their advantage over AA.

Plus JetBlue people want blue chips when they fly.

If JB tries to beat Spirit by matching/beating ticket prices, they'll lose in the long run. It's common knowledge that Spirit's costs are lower than JB's by a long shot. Hope Luftansa has deep, patient pockets.

The big question was the selling of the fuel hedge.

Was it out of necessity or did that particular management team have some remarkable macroeconomic foreshadowing ability?

yeh, it's called inside information. It's how wall street works....

Well put 600! Sounds like this tool's best days were back in high school!

You cant win can you. First I'll be complaining about not making enough, next post I'm ready to cut my throat at skybus.

As far as working on my vocabulary......you make me laugh. I see your one of THOSE that measure ones intellect by their writing abilities! Your the pathetic little weasel back in highschool that we used to kick the sh#t out of all the time! While we were partying and banging all the hotties, you were with the nerd study group palming each other while working on your vocabulary! Sad.....soooo sad

Nice...very nice...what of his do you see?

On an internet forum how else should one judge intellect?

Typically people type the same way they speak...
