WN Expresses Interest in LGA/DCA Slots

[Quimby]

So why doesn't SWA just get a bigger airplane? The B737-900ER could hold 215 passengers verse the -700 125 plus or minus a little. SWA could almost double capacity with the same slots at LGA now. If Gary really thought there was a demand you would think he would do something about it. Guess not.

I bet a SWA pilot couldn't fly a -900. The -900 is too much of a plane for a plane for a corn dog weenie.

You need to take lessons in flamebait from Tankerclown & Instructordude.

Weak attempt, at best.

Oh so it's OK to use the government to compete?? Where was SWA when slots were first introduced?? F-ing around the Texas Triangle on the back of Herb's napkin and now you want the g-men to help you out? sorry.......

Did you even READ the article ??

Right wing economics at it's best. Convenient for your cause, but not true on any level. Tell you what- read wealth of nations- then maybe why John Nash won the Nobel econ prize- heck- (<--do you like that mods? No creative swearing(!)) - just take an econ 101 class- but regulation is most certainly a requirement of any successful economic system lest monopolies take over and stifle the free hand-
"unregulated competition doesn't lead to fair competition, it leads to unfair competition" paraphrased: 'there must be sufficient regulation to keep organizations competing through efficiency and not through who holds the biggest stick'
those slots belong to their community-

It's pretty rich considering the wright amendment and southwest's history to criticize them on government issues- but there's one big difference. Southwest has always fought for the chance to compete- the bigger slower airlines always fight to use the govt so they won't have to compete.

Please stay off this board, this board is for the selfish me,me me, I am better than everyone else crowd. I do not think BL and others like him could care less about the public . Hell,ticket prices should be at least 1000 bucks a pop, why should the middle class have to fly anyway.

In its ruling, the DOT said the divestitures were necessary because, at both airports, it is likely that the proposed transaction would make the dominant airline even more dominant and more able to increase fares --- which are already high compared with other airports in the same area.

That is Why.

Exactly. Heaven forbid you actually charge what a ticket is worth.
Good thing swa gets its money through its pft program, so morons like you can get hired.
Don't forget that every passenger that brings their trashbag, "it's on!":laugh:

Sooooo, what exactly is a ticket worth? WN seems to do just fine in the fares they charge, the salaries they pay and profits they earn.
Is your airline not able to do so?

I'm sure those $39 fares represent your worth....I mean you had to PFT to get hired on at swa.

Ya good thing J A . I never paid for it, so once again ( as always ) you are wrong. I just wish you would put some stock tips out so i could make some money on your being inept, and always wrong....

You sure act like your better than everyone else, Hilter would be proud of you. You are not only very bitter you have VERY LOW self esteem ... I do feel sorry for what ever happen in your life to make you like this, its sad.

And yet another PFT expert speaks..................

I'll give you a tip----------------->Paint that trailer you call home!:laugh:

Why do you care that an individual PFT? If you are against paying for a type to get hired by SWA that is ok. However, it would not cost you anything to apply and if you get hired then you can decide whether it would be worth while. If you do not get hired then you lose nothing. So, you either applied and got turned down or you know that you could not get hired because you do not have what they are looking for or your background check would eliminate you.

No, I am not a pilot for SWA. If I could be a pilot for SWA I would.

I'm not against it, I just think it's hysterical how the sw skirts here get all pissed off that they could only get hired thanks to the sw pft program!

However, it would not cost you anything to apply and if you get hired then you can decide whether it would be worth while.

I'm not even remotely interested in working at swa!

If you do not get hired then you lose nothing.

I lose nothing because I don't want to apply!

So, you either applied and got turned down or you know that you could not get hired because you do not have what they are looking for or your background check would eliminate you.

Oh that's right, the old, "you got turned down" answer!

No, I am not a pilot for SWA.

So then, what do you care?

If I could be a pilot for SWA I would.

Then plunk down your cash, and interview, take the chance on getting hired. Based on the morons that post here, they'll take just about anyone with a checkbook!:laugh:

Bitter, bitter, bitter. Do tell me, Hitler jr. , whats so wrong with someone that lives in a trailer?

by the way i am still waiting for your stock tips ( Ms. Always wrong )

Disagree with Dr. Slaquer and self-esteem and bitterness flows out his hole like Dr. Full (of $hit). Dude, quit acting like you know what you are talking about labelling people who don't see things all canyon blue......

 

[Scope out RJ's]

Bitter, bitter, bitter. Do tell me, Hitler jr. , whats so wrong with someone that lives in a trailer?

Nothing wrong with it at all! After all, you never need to worry about cutting the grass, landscaping, snow plowing the driveway. And if you don't like your neighbors, you just up and move along to the next trailer park. After all, "its on!"

by the way i am still waiting for your stock tips ( Ms. Always wrong )

Try any airline stock, they're always a good buy!:laugh:

It's called tourettes syndrome. You must be one out of 20 kids who suffer from it. When you're not busy playing outside or pretending to be a pilot, get to your doctor and have him give you something for it. I suggest a muzzle. Have a great liberal day!

Oh joy!! More words of wisdom from the idiot king. This goofy gus has never been in a cockpit. He claims to have a military background; he never would have made it thru UPT with his attitude. I am guessing "he" is a disgruntled washout with latent homosexual tendencies. I must admit that his stupidity is somewhat humorous. How does one get so bitter? Which was worse, getting caught pulling your pud on a SWA flight, or just getting caught trying to save some $ on a fare by flying SWA, just curious?

Oh joy, more words of wisdom from another pft moron. Hey moon dong, you open up that checkbook for the pft program at swa? You in class yet?
So if it's a cockpit for me, what is it for you, the box office?:laugh:

Check that. Better ask your mom and sis about that! Those two know how to throw one heck of a party. You should see what happens when the LA Lakers are there!:blush:

Getting caught coming out of moon dongs house when he's supposedly not home!:laugh:
Don't worry moondong, a fool and his money are soon departed. Thank God that sw has the pft program or you'd be out of work
