You hit the nail on the head. if you fail to innovate, you will fail as countless other companies have for 150 years. Sears?. The hub and spoke airline world only works if you have multiple hubs stretched out along your network. When you have one hub and its in the upper left corner of the box, you will not succeed. They have to know this is a failed concept.
Idea, SFO, bad options for obvious reason, but the bay area as a whole can be a hub (OAK, SFO, SJC) to a degree, then look at other cities to consider as well.
My point is simple INNOVATE boneheads!! Come on lets get this airline rolling!
