Southwest cleared for 14 slots at LaGuardia

ATA SMARTBRIEF | 12/04/2008
Southwest Airlines will be allowed to purchase 14 slots at New York LaGuardia, a judge ruled Tuesday in the bankruptcy case of ATA Airlines. The deal, valued at $7.5 million, will allow the discount carrier to operate seven daily flights, pending a decision by the Port Authority on Southwest's request for a single gate at the busy airport. CEO Gary Kelly hinted at further growth in the future. "If we decide to grow in the future beyond the 14 slots, I'm reasonably comfortable we can get more facilities," he said.

My guess is SWA rents the slots to Volaris and Westjet.

Which do you recommend? I believe yall have 10 different feeder companies. How has that worked out for yall? I would be extremely bitter if I was in your shoes too. It would SUCK to be a 30 yr FO. At least you get comfy in the seat huh?I thought you people call them SJs, good to see you've moved on. We will endure growing pains as we move forward. I just hope we can use the bad decisions of your comapany and others to facilitate good decision making as pilots. We appreciate the wisdom you have given us.

Not sure? These are all names you have called people when they don't agree 100% with your way of thinking. You should be really prould of this. Do you just stir the pot because you are bitter, old, have fragile hips, old wrinkley balls, and are pissed that your career turned out to be one stinking pile of sh!t? Respectifully submitted, of course.

My anger huh?
Just about every retort you've had on this board is filled with venom and name calling. Does this make you feel better? I'm not one bit angry. If you don't like us, fine. I am comfortable in my shoes, are you?
I actually don't have a resume or logbook anymore. If this place goes t!ts-up, I'm applying at Whataburger.

Most of us are lucky to be here and realize the fortune we have had in the last 30 years. We've dodged many bullets, and will have many more to dodge. However, the anger and childish antics of someone like the Scope RJ dude is downright rediculous. You dont agree? Or does he have the right to be a d!ck since he has so much wisdom and experience?

How do you figure? You my brother are two faced. Do you shop at target, Wallmart, TJ max ect. or do you do as you preach and only shop at specialty stores? I do think we all know the answer. By the way miss two face, who do you fly for ? Ya, once again I am sure you will not say.

Jealous, thats ok I think we will start interviewing later this year you can try again!

 

[Rez O. Lewshun]

Maybe some of the regional jet Capts that are now FO's at SWA can show the LUV CA's how to operate out of LGA....

Remember when SWA first started flying the NE corridor back in the day!







Sorry couldn't resist!!
