Just trying to stay positive here, people. The stock price sucks, but it wasn't exactly unexpected after the start of branded.
How exactly are you going to make a profit flying 50-seaters with oil $85/barrel, 50% load factor and ultra-low fares.

Not to mention on some routes XJT is almost competing with SWA... after all LAX and ONT serve a lot of the same customer base.
