But it’s ok at the Majors? My COLLEAGUES work for the same company that I do. All others are COMPETITORS. I have friends at other airlines, and I wish them well......but I’m rooting for the home team first and foremost.
The reason it’s so upsetting at the regional level is that the only way to “compete” is by being cheaper. Even then, you’re still at the mercy of the mainline operator.
