Interesting that you say UA is dumping seats. That is what I was trying to relate in a previous thread. If UA or one of the other legacy carriers adds seats to a market in competition with an LCC it is considered predatory by the mindless. When VX adds service to a market that is saturated it is them establishing a market share. You guys can't have it both ways. Personally I hope UA and any other legacy carrier crushes VX in any endeavor it attempts.
