I honestly hope his legacy class doesn't cancel and that he isn't furloughed in the near future.
At least Southwest takes your ID in person on the jet bridge. Jeez.

Tell your buddy to tell his buddy that he needs to call his rep. This is ridiculous.

does anyone else think its interesting that robin made a point of mentioning that jetblue wasn't asking for or in need of a government bailout during his interview on TV the other day?

It looks inevitable that the big three (top tier, if you haven't heard) will be going hat in hand next week asking for the peoples money.

Perhaps he's positioning JB for a I told you so in regards to favorable treatment. Like JB is responsible and look at these irrational industry actors..

Who said anything about fall? All they said is that the next class is postponed. Did I miss something else?

You're right, postponed. I must have read another airline's projection.
