Southwest rips off PAX Taxes!

[Donald]

Why would a company that SHOUTS "Bags Fly Free!"

Rip-Off their passengers for the taxes that they paid?

Why are you slamming SWA for doing this when there are others doing the same thing? Sounds like you just have a bone to pick with SWA.

So, if everybody else steals from the public, that makes it OK?

What are you talking about. GK just said on CNBC that the pax that had already purchased tickets are getting refunded and they aren't taking the taxes out on new ticket purchases. How's that shoe taste?

 

[SWA/FO]

Hows that paycheck? Bite the hand that feeds ya.

I'm glad he changed his mind and
followed Delta and others who did
The right thing from the start.

He certainly saw "Which way
the wind was blowing" and
Minimized the bad publicity.

Kwick,you are an idiot

Hopefully GK will institute a DOH SLI
and save the SW pilots from an
arbitrated relative seniority result.

 

[Fubijaakr]

Sorry, but "Daddy" can't institute anything. That would be against Federal law.

You keep dreaming, though, Ace.

Jealous much?

Tempest in a teapot...

The funding bill that was just signed was made retroactive to the day the previous bill expired. Uncle Sam gets the taxes, after all.
