Southwest - Profit!!!

[lowecur]

Did you know????

SWA is losing money at MDW, PHL, and PIT. It is also stated by Lehman Bros analyst Gary Chase that SWA has not made money at any of the major markets they have entered since 9/11. Imagine, 200 flts per day at MDW and losing money? Chase said these are just a few of his concerns as these markets are losing money even with the fuel hedges.

I,d check over where you're getting these "facts". They don't even sound remotely true!

Gary said PHL was the most successful city WN has ever opened. Lowecur, why don't you give it a rest?

Hey, this is coming from an analcyst at Lehman Bros. Could he be wrong?

Quote from B737Dvr

Well the difference is that we WORK for what we get paid!

Riiiiiight, like all of those walkarounds you do on those 20 minute turns or might that be your rampers doing the "Work".

Climb down off your cross and pull the nails out of your hands J3, and quit slinging mud. B737 was dead on and you tell HIM to get a business plan, like HE has ANY say over it.

Inevitable: The 787 arrives in its carbon-fiber glory. It turns out to be a huge success and extraordinarily economical to operate. In 15 years, everyone is flying 787's domestically, and SWA will be faced with a decision... scrap the 737 model and transition to 787 (expen$ive) or soldier on with 737 (also expen$ive).

????

If SWA does get the 787, or a smaller version, they will be the most able to afford it. Yes, expensive, but SWA is getting 35 planes a year already.

Everyone is going to get the 787??? If they can get financing.

Just how long do you think SWA would be operating out of PHL, DEN and MDW if they were losing money????

Why would Gary Kelly announce a desire to buy 20 more airplanes than currently on order (55) between now and 2007 if the new markets were losers???

Did you know this guy at Lehman brothers sounds daft?

Blah blah blah... we are kicking a$$ and taking names. Sorry that upsets some of you older, wiser guys. I do my part everyday I VJA for a trip, helping out. You must fly 60 trips a month!

Count your blessings. As a former legacy guy now at SWA, this was and still is the attitude that has led to the demise of many. Arrogancy and Complacency will kill us. Having partially survived my furlough after having been told I "won the lottery" has given me a little perspective. I was told the same thing at WN new hire and hope it is true. Keep up the productivity and company allegiance but don't let it go to your head.

Best,
Fellow SWA/FO

Lowerturd, quit smoking crack. The best part of you ran down your daddys leg. Now back up this idiotic comment with some fact instead of spewing some bs like a brother in hood trying not to get locked up.

I dont know where we find some of these tools, but it seems is though there is always about 1% that can really stick their foot in their mouth. Plus it portrays this bs premadonna attitude that is not represntative of 99.9% of us.

Exactly. I have tried to point this out before, but to no avail. Who knows what will happen tomorrow.... gloating just highlights the insecurity of these few idiots.... enough!

imp:

If you didn't like the guy, that's one thing... but to call him an anal cyst is quite another. He should be removed.

Most of this is in good fun. What I find is: some can dish it out but can't take it when it comes back to them. I know LUCK plays a huge role in where one ends up. This is no different, however I also believe one creates their own luck. I made the calls, I applied and worked hard for this. I continue to work hard (some would laugh at this) everyday to keep this Company going.

My PM function works. Why call a SWAPA brother out in the open? Until next time America - the SWA/FO is outta here!!!
