On a separate note, did AA lease a bunch of slots to JetBlue? Can they get them back if so? Genuinely curious.

T8 just became busy again because every One World airline moved over there in the last few months. It's not from AA. BA shut down at T7 after decades of operating out of there.

Short answer: Run a reliable operation, make money, pay down debt. That’s it’s.
The oasis configuration aligned us with industry peers, not LCCs. In fact our non-neo a321s still seat less than Delta’s. PTVs, no comment. I’ll leave that for internet Av geek bloggers to discuss.
Long Hual intl network will be rebuilt when the next 30 787s and the 50 XLRs show up. But making money is priory #1. There’s no secret sauce.

You get 60k bonus miles. It’s enough for two free round trip domestic tickets. All you have to do is complete one purchase to activate the card. For the cost of a pack of gum you can earn your 60k miles.
can not forget the credit cards man

Delta absolutely took the government money:
U.S. Treasury starts distributing $15 billion in payroll aid to airlines | Reuters.
You are mixing things up. Payback of loans wasn't a contingency of not furloughing, it was an contingency of getting the first couple rounds of government free money. Remember, there were a total of 3 (?) rounds of government funding.
AA furloughed after all the government money stopped, and APA refused to reduce obligation hours/pay like UAL and DAL did.[/color]

Where in holy bejesus did you think I said Delta didn't take govt cheese money that they were handing out with the only string that there can be no furloughs to pay back?
I got it, you think AA mgmt has it all figured out. Time will tell, like they say in sports....."scoreboard".

You are extremely obstinate.

Say whatever you want about Isom, but he is lazer focused on the operations side and it’s paying dividends. If things keep trending in this direction we can finally catch up to, or even exceed Delta on profitability. Hey I’m all about it. PS checks and all.
