The difference is that you won't see any of us go crying to the moderators, and then simultaneously go overboard with the very insults they whined about.

Just another difference between legacy and other carriers.

Nobody is discounting anything. My prediction is that fares in Atlanta will stay the same or rise. Frankly, I can't stand either AirTran or SWA, but at least SWA will drive the high class play back home where they belong, while increasing its costs massively.

The winners in this transaction are Delta and the Air Tan pilots.
