This selfish attitude is a huge part of the problem in this business. You don't give a rip about anyone but yourself.
Flame on children.
After all of United's pay cut's, who's contract and pay is better? United or Virgin?
Do you really think that LCC's don't have an impact on the rest of the industry? If there product is so much better and they run a tighter ship than the legacies, why can't they pay their employee's the same? We all know that lower wages equal lower fares.
