Exactly spot on. For the pilot types the most important point is traffic grew 8.2% on a capacity increase of 8.3%. In other words JetBlue is organically growing responsibly, no mergers, no acquisitions just responsible organic growth. None of the other Big 6 Majors are growing organically. That is a good thing.
I know this growth will upset the AA/Delta/UCal guys, but JetBlue is doing something right if they can fill seats at the same growth rate and make a profit, while paying down debt, during a major Hurricane that affected JFK and BOS, with 4 Million in Fuel Hedge losses. That is good for JetBlue guys.
