Exactly. If UAL carried the same number of passengers, and made the same or more on the bottom line, the company would be doing a fantastic job. There has to be a metric out there that can back out those systemic costs and incomes to produce a more comparative number. I am not convinced the analysts even know it because I read some comments by one suggesting we reduce in expensive markets....not like someone else can move in and make ATL money in SFO.
