Funny that they are wanting pilots with NG exper. but signed off to buy 737-300's.

My old CP from Brand X has been working on a new 737 or A-320 startup, so maybe this is it.

$135 million in capital and only 6 planes? Sounds kind of suspicious, but then, so was New Air in 1999!!

Doubtful, This company is probably not getting their airplanes for free.

I don't know where this rumor comes from. If you take the time to read JetBlue's financial statements you will see that they have been paying for their airplanes for quite some time now.

It was a joke. It has been well established that they are paying for their planes.

Southwest only made money in the early days because they got free gas!!!! Being a Texas airline what else would you expect?

 

[TexaSWA]

Im pretty sure the Bush family, Halliburton, Exxon, Gulf oil, Oxidental, and Willie and Waylon were involved.

I wouldn't expect the next JetBlue...LCC to come out for another decade or so. The problem with a new LCC, is that now, SWA and JB have the guns to blow them out of the water. Between the legacies and the LCC's don't expect them to take competition laying down.

Once SWA has built itself into Legacy status and then give it another decade there might be a new LCC. So that could be as far off as 20 years.

Remember after dereg there were a lot of carriers that came out, but only AWA exists as the same entity.

But that is only history and as much as history is bound to repeat itself, it is just as bound not to repeat itself. Historically, speaking, SWA should have never made it, but they seem to be doing just fine.
