I see a lot of posts saying that "LCC's will be OK, as their focus is domestic. NAI will never be able to fly point-to-point in the US!"
Let me ask you this... if it was this easy for them to get flag-of-convenience... how hard will it be to advocate for cabotage?
The same John Doe that only cares that a ticket from Vegas to Europe costs $69 won't give a damn that his $49 ticket from Vegas to JFK is flown by foreign pilots.
All of us are vulnerable.
