I remember distinctly seeing a Cathay Pacific crew walking through the airport Hilton LAX a few years back followed by a United crew. JHC. It was like a slaughter ready pig following a Kentucky race horse. American carriers will lose to everyone else on product.
I know I'm pointing out the obvious (and you probably realize this, too) but EEOC an anti-discrimination laws have a lot to do with that.
