Look at all the numbers in the quarterly earnings. We flew more pax and had more revenue than last year. We are still growing capacity for the rest of the year, just not as fast as we had originally planned. Our head count is too high because they hired for that increase in capacity. They are taking this opportunity to quit digging a hole in some of the money losing stations. Good.
This will work its way out. We aren't shrinking and the world is not ending. Guys on TOF are predicting bankruptcies for crying out loud. I am not happy about the way things are going right now either, but this too shall pass.
Where can I buy some of those rose-colored glasses?
