The business model is flawed and it’s execution is a direct result of management practices that failed.
Point made, business model is flawed and to be real everything that exec management has been doing is not cutting it. Cheap fares, contracted airport services, lack of premium services (data showing thats what consumers are choosing), nickel-and-diming is not the solution. Not to include paying attention to wrong markets and focusing on bases that should not have been chosen (MIA). As a I said before we can fill planes, we just not attracting fares and consumers wiling to spend some dollars. Our down P&W 320's aren't the issue it's the guys and hedquarters and eveerything we been doing except everything we should have been doing.
