Overall I think this is good for the company, but I know the drive/parking at LAX will be hard for local JB crew.
Yeah I don’t think this is really any immediate SoCal growth, it just opens a pathway for it (guess we will see in the August bid how projected block hours affect staffing). If we can just chip away at a little market share here and there, then that helps overall. I also think we will get smoked on some of these routes...we will just have to find what works, as north/south out of LAX is obviously new for our network, and extremely competitive/saturated...and we don’t have cheaper outsourced flying to do any of it like everyone else (minus WN).
