That is a great idea, but considering we'd have to do it almost EVERY DAY, it might get a bit expensive AND start turning off the passengers. Oil is becoming such a big PITA for airlines I wouldn't be surprised to see a few of them out of business very soon. I do find it interesting that $500 million in employee concessions in totally wiped out by two or three days of oil trading.
