Default Top US airlines, that time again.

Congrats to Hawaiian, Jetblue, and Airtran.

Same old crap... does anybody really care how an airline ranks in some retarded survey when it comes to buying their ticket? Oh oh oh... American Idol is on!

I'd be more interested in Pilots ranking of Airlines. By the way Hawaiian Pilots are picketing today because of pay grievances.

I realize that these surveys don't really reflect the realities of our profession, but non the less, it's interesting to know the public perception. Let's not forget guys, this is a competitive business, and indirectly these things matter to our bottom line.

Best of luck to the Hawaiian guys today in their picketing.

The reality is that if airline A cancels 30% of the time between JFK-LAX but costs 30% less, they are gonna book on airline A. Then they will get on the internet and complain about it.

That's the how it works. End of story.

I just went to their website. You can take their survey there online. Which means the survey isn't scientific.

Am I contesting the results, no, I think the findings are probably pretty accurate.
