Where are the Majors that make money

[dogman]

I'm just trying to get the moderators attention. Move Fedex, UPS, back to the major section.

 

[SWA/FO]

Right here baby! Southwest Airlines

 

[sandman2122]

Isn't SWA still considered a "national airline"?

How can you be a Major airline and not fly out of the country? Jetblue, ASA and American Eagle does.....

this is fun!!

 

[Benhuntn]

SWA is a major

We are a major in many ways. Not because of where we fly but because of how many flts we make a day. As I fly up the east and west coasts each week I am amazed by the fact that most call signs that you hear on ATC are SW.

Cheers

Sandman,


Aren't you late for your sort? Who's lite.

What in the heck are you talking about Benhuntn??? I NEVER hear Southwest on freq with ATC!

Oh...wait...thats because because I'm usually in Hong Kong or Narita and FedEx only flights at 3 am.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, just kidding. I don't know where I'd be today without SWA, they are the nicest pilots in the industry. But everyone knows that because the airline was started in TEXAS!!!

And grammer lesson...

Maybe FI can implement a spell checker and grammer checker like MS Word? I know I would benefit and am guilty of all kind of errors, but this one was ugly for being such a small post.

The generic definition of a Major airline in the eyes of the Dept of Transportation is revenue in excess of $1 billion annually.

I kid, I kid! But seriously, did you hear the one about the Priest, the donkey and the former head of the FAA all walk into a bar together and..........

Who's light??? How about another trip to Vegas?

 

[SWA/FO]

How about another trip to Hong Kong?

Ummmm...Before you attempt to play grammAr police...learn to spell grammar, okay? Otherwise, refrain from such petty cr@p.

Aaahhh...........real irony........and comedy.

So shouldn't Comair also be in the Majors section?

 

[enigma]

OK Yahtzee, your fired. Cause, incompetence in the spelling arena.

May I have your seniority number, please.


Man, is this a tough crowd, or what?

[enigma]

Hey moderator, let the freight boys stay. Heck, you've allowed Spirit threads here before; if NK qualifies, then FDX certainly qualifies.

If they were not a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta they probably would be. I don't know all the details, just what I have been told or overheard in a bar somewhere.

We fly to 8 cities that are not in the United States.

They are:

Los Angeles, Ontario, Burbank, SanDiego, Orange County, Sacramento, SanJose, and Oakland.

I always carry my passport when I travel south of Abilene.

Didn't I mention something about FI installing a spellchecker and I could use the help? It would beat the heck out of the cut and paste to MS Word and back. I wasn't tying to being mean-spirited or trying to be petty...but rather funny. Hence the symbols such as or

I hope Sandman understood my jab…since the FedEx crowd and SWA folks have traded some fun spirited rumors about each other lately. His post made me laugh, and I hope many of my posts have done the same for others.

I don't take myself too seriously...hopefully you won't either. And maybe as a result of my mistakes FI might one day incorporate a spell checker and I will be vindicated. My lasting gift to FI...besides my avatar of course.

P.S. And no Enigma you can’t have my seniority number…but I’m still hoping you get a call soon.
