dckozak,
Ditto for the excellent post, to the JB pilots, I have some good friends at JB, but here's the problem. You guys have been singing the same tune concerning how somehow through good management/better productivity/fill in the blank.....JB has become sucessful, when in reality, your paid sub-scale salaries, cherry pick your routes (Haven't seen too many blue tails in Des Moines or Springfield MO, or Paris France) and your entire airline is on their 4th or 5th year pay scale....How can a Delta or AA compete? I'll tell you how lay off thousands and cut their salary and benefits!! The whole industry is being dragged down. Hell, my neighbor just bought tickets on Spirit for $59...the friggin cab ride to the airport cost $80!!! But I guess we have to live with this new paradigm
