Anyway, Jet Blue was too strapped to get VX away from AS. AS couldn’t let that have happened and that’s why they paid what they did. The competition on the west coast is heating up big time. AS is in a turf war with 2 of the biggest competitors. Wait until WN starts Hawaii service. Gonna be lots of butter with no bread to put it on.
With all due respect to each pilot group, was Jet Blue to “strapped?” Wasn’t it really a brilliant example of driving up the cost, forcing Alaska to pay a huge premium for VX?
The music stopped and Jet Blue sat down first.
