Def the JV team of the 4 major airlines.....
You haven't been around here long, have you?
Passengers don't book their flights based on an earnings call Q&A. As far as the investors, they're not interested in the long term profitability of United Airlines; they want profit, now, this quarter and next, to prop up the share price and generate stock buy backs. They'd be happy if we sold the narrow bodies, farmed out the flying to the Barbie jets, and furloughed 3000 pilots. They don't care about the next year, the next 5 years, the next 10 years. Unless you're retiring in the next 8 months, you should probably be more concerned about the long term viability and market share. For the first time since Greenwald, we have a management team that is focused on long term success, not short term profits.
