some companies just know how to do it right. Where are all the "hedges are running out" people now? SWA dominates this industry whether you like them or not.

Default casm creep

Southwest's cost of carrying each passenger one mile, a closely watched measurement in the industry, jumped 6.4 percent not counting fuel. That's a much bigger increase than overall inflation, but Southwest said it held costs down by reducing advertising and getting a rebate on excess security fees it has paid to the Transportation Security Administration since 2005.
The airline said it expects a similar increase in costs in the third quarter.

Unless you guys keep raising fares....costs will have to come down some other way....
