I haven't flown since the week of Thanksgiving! FAT CITY baby.
So, no, it's not a great way to run an airline. It's a terribly wasteful way to run an airline. But I'll gladly collect my 76 x $211.
BTW, 300 flights are cancelled in Denver today. So much for not stranding folks.
Just wait till they try to cover right seat trips with all the Captains sitting around. Its inevitable.
