Sorry I hurt your feelings. I honestly don't care who flies what airline. My comments were more on the business models. I hope that soon we are all complaining about how much we have to work and how short we are on pilots.

Look at the way SWA disrupted the industry post deregulation. That's exactly what the ULCCs are doing now. Fast forward a decade and you can bet there will be some consolidation and one or two strong players in the true ULCC game. Just like SWA has failed to compete head to head with legacy carriers doing legacy carrier stuff, so too will the ULCCs. Size and scale matter.

Now, a huge ULCC (700 plus aircraft) that is flush with cash? Yikes. That's something to be feared.
