Why the industry is sinking..

[N8Dogg]

SWA has every right to fight the fare war because they are not ch11. It's just smart economics (management).

 

[canyonblue]

All of the airlines have to compete to match SWA or face the prospect of permanently ceding market share to them.

Well there is competing and then there is imploding. And undercutting Southwest by $50.00 seems ridiculous.

 

[100LL... Again!]

And tort reform while we are at it.

Say no to John Edwards.

"So now, we see the result. Now, it's not just the employees of United who are in a dire situation. Now, the employees of Delta, US Airways and ATA are looking at losing everything. In addition, the jobs of nearly all the airline employees in the nation are more tenuous than perhaps they have ever been."

I really don't understand how Delta can be put in the same situation as USAir and ATA..... these two are in CHPT11, one for a second time and d a m n near chapter 7. Should Delta go Chapter 11, it'll be at least another couple of years till things go towards chapter 7....ie United. Now there are other here like NYRanger, who by the way is a tool , that will spin his own little web, but come on mother d is not going chapter 7 anytime soon.....

Wrong DB , after looking at the TA, I am now a recovering optimist. We're F'ed.

We're F'ed.

No hockey season, really F'ed. Where's my Wings!

Instead of the gov't backloading, subsidizing and reacting to airline industry problems... let's proactively keep things in check...


Is there is a new form of regulation applicable?
