I think that is exactly the point. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few years.
"The FAA 20-year forecast predicts the number of passengers traveling on U.S. airlines will increase by 3.5 percent from last year to 737.4 million passengers in 2011. That figure is projected to grow an average of 2.8 percent each year during the remaining forecast period to 1.3 billion by 2031."
Copied that from the FAA website. So with reduced frequency and increased capacity, will it be enough to handle the droves of people trying to fly?
