You're just looking one step back when this started several steps.ago. invite you to do some research.
Some of yall certainly sound like it’s personal. Like the guy slept with your wife or something. Kirby can’t be mentioned in a sentence without it being attached to cross-dressing, using tampons, or being trans. I get it, the guy is boastful, but he shouldn’t live rent in your head.
I also get what you’re saying about UA adding flights first. However, the UnitedNext plan was to grow in all of the hubs. ORD is unique that 2 carriers call it a hub and how the airport allocates the gates (this pre-dates the turf war). UA was always going to grow ORD which would’ve forced AA to respond. Again, it wasn’t out of pettiness, it was planned from the inception of UnitedNext. Should a company not grow and expand because another company would hate it?
