Every airline can be great or HELL depending on who they hire as a CEO and President. AA will have their day at the top and bottom just like everyone else has.
The biggest problem I have are the structural issues. Buying back stock instead of investing in the product/service first is the biggest one.
Delta made moves (and is continuing to do so) to position themselves well. Now they are raking in the money. We are doing the opposite - spending the money now hoping it continues to roll in into the future.
Just IMO.
