Window Seat, your posts make every one of us look like douche bags. If it wasn't Spirit or Frontier, it would be some other start up like skybus "flooding the market" with cheap seats. There is a never ending supply of people who, for some reason, want to own an airline. If there was a capacity void out there, someone is going to fill it.
We are all the same type of people, doing the same type of job. The guys at the LLC's and ULCC's aren't your enemy. They are your colleagues, doing the same thing you're doing. Working for a living so they can provide for their family. You are no better than them because you work for Delta. Don't ever forget that.
I just realized that this post was 7 months ago, oh well, it still applies.
