Right, and the US airlines are the only ones who pay ridiculous amount of taxes...

Crappy product, old airplanes, nonexistent customer service, nonexistent amenities, nonexistent vision beyond stock market price, nonexistent focus.... those are just a few of the reasons why I choose to take my Business Class travel elsewhere. And yes, I'm a full fare passenger...

Oh, and it's not retarded for a part 91 guy to go onto a site called "Airline Pilot Forums" and scrawl a bunch of short-sighted nonsense encouraging the eventual outsourcing of all international airline flying, so we can end up like those poor SOBs at Qantas.

You. Are. Awesome.

Now it is CBPs fault. But its never our fault.

you might try Breakfast Blend get off the Dark Roast

its gonna be ok... try this see if it helps...good luck, as Virgin America, SWA, JetBlue, continue to put the customer first, and are doing well (as best as they can in this business) financially. Yes amazing concept.
