We are all here to learn something.

It's been that way for years Sonny. Look at J-Blew. The are retreating with their tails between their legs and cancelling trans-cons, cutting back on orders, NYC-FLA market is retrenching ect... These "start-ups" shine for several years than start suffering the very same pains we do.
Nothing new here except for defending the trade. When times are good again what carrier will you want to work for? The Jet Blews or the Legacy's?
