This is what I have done. I have all 300+ CDs in MP3 format along with numerous other music (14,xxx songs and counting) in Itunes on an external hard drive.

Great spin by SWA.

Better than saying "Delta is kicking our asses; we're in a defensive crouch in ATL."

The bottom line of my rant is that we seriously undermined our own bargaining position and there wasn't a peep from anyone.




What the hell?! Have you had me on your ignore list for the past 5 years??

From the article:

“It’s going to allow us to compete even more effectively with Delta,” Chief Commercial Officer Bob Jordan said in an interview. “We’re doing really well today, actually gaining local market share. That’s the name of the game. It’s higher- yielding passengers too.”


Really?

SWA only has coach seats so how are they getting "...higher yield passengers too." ? :rolleyes:

Spreading themselves around after a massive reduction is branded as reinventing the wheel, for great success! :rolleyes:

And there wasn't a peep from anyone; except Carl, of course!

Awesome spin by SWA!

Less airplanes on the ground at one time and less needed employees is not downsizing, it's more effective competition.

When the merged with AirTran, I could have sworn I heard people say they were going to take Atlanta over.
