OK first of all there is no money in Florida. None. And forget about Florida to Europe. There is absolutely zero money there, as evidenced by the high number of money losing super premium widebodies there at any given time. They are only doing those money losing routes to help repay their WWI/II and subsequent perpetual defense debts to us. They are doing us a favor. Likewise, Florida bases are why SWA and JB are about to liquidate.

There is NO MONEY IN FLORIDA!!!!

Srsly though I think we're being indirectly penalized to fund the never ending marketing blank check that's been given. Fly anything, anywhere, regardless of trip construction, pilot productivity or basing, that generates one penny more revenue. So every city gets every plane in the fleet and nothing makes sense for a base for any one of them. Then the company squeals about how unproductive we are with all the low credit days and long sits and overnights because of the marketing situation they created along with their choice to have a zillion fleet types in the first place. They then pile on that said lack of productivity is the reason we can't achieve profitable LCC parity, but maybe we can scrounge up some used fleet refreshment jets at the bottom end for 10 million each, but only if we can order and outsource more 20-40 million dollar "RJ's".
