Bottom line is we are growing.
We are growing, so is everyone else. We are growing, but slower than planned during a time of RECORD corporate earnings and low fuel. 2 years ago we deferred 18 airbuses for 16-17-18. And just recently told Wall Street we were slowing our growth rate through the end of 16.

I refuse to get excited again about all these rumors of increased growth. They always fizzle-out and disappoint. Hope I'm wrong but sick of the disappointment.

Not your fault of course.
