JetBlue is responsible for changing a few things in the industry. Competition is healthy. So is fear to an extent. A 321 will never be able to compete with widebodies fed by global networks. I’m sure B6’s entrance with their 20 or so premium seats a day vs over a 1000’s of premium seats at the legacy and international carriers will be feared by someone. Not sure who. Welcome to the jungle.
I think this is all part of Robin and his ego to his U.K. buds that his airline can cross the pond. If you guys don’t think BA and AA as well as Norwegian and the others won’t fight this tooth and nail all you have to do is look at all the tombstones in the graveyard of translant flying.
First para is debatable. But yeah competition is good. I don’t think anyone is afraid of jetblue but will respond in kind. Just like they did tcon. But JB didn’t slow down it’s tcon offerings. I think there’s plenty of room for JB to offer profitable good products tatl as wellOriginally Posted by Tailhookah
Yeah. TED. Song. Alter egos never have worked well. There are others. Song was a superior product to Jetblue but on an airframe that was too big and didn’t work with mainline employee rates. I flew both back in the day. Song was nice. JetBlue is responsible for changing a few things in the industry. Competition is healthy. So is fear to an extent.
