Because HOU got a customs facility and upgraded terminals which coincided with SWA starting flights to the Caribbean/Mexico for the first time in their history. Plus the feed in and out to US cities beyond. They're KILLING it!! I tell you what.

I am hopeful that Houston will continue to improve economically and get more demand for air travel, but in the near term it can't support its' size, which sucks for those based there.
It's in all our best interests to see IAH thrive - thriving hubs translate into bigger profit sharing checks for all of us. |

We tried to tell them that what they were hearing was BS but they knew better. Besides the fact that is was okay they said when it happened to DEN, you know nothing personal it was just business. Apparently it has a different meaning when it happenes in IAH. |

Sure would be cool if ALPA could force Management to put flying where I wanted it rather than where it might make the most money. It's always been all about me.
The company can move the flying around, but it should be really expensive for them to do it on a whim. |

seems most people long remember their college days, their sports teams, their country where they grew up. but somehow pilots should just Men In Black erase away the first decades of their airline experiences? interesting.... |

so humans should just forget 20-30 years of their lives and all the moments and events that affected them? can you point to other areas (outside the airlines) where people do this?

No, but as I get older, I find the path to happiness lies in not worrying about things I have no control over. If I could get a do-over, I'd spend a lot less time worrying about how things may or not work out and accept that, somewhere, there was a happy path to travel. For me, the whole merger thing is past, the SLI is long done, and I'd prefer to just enjoy the next 11 or so years till retirement rather than ***** about the past. Life is too short to be unhappy all the time :)
Now, is that a 3 or 4 iron to the green? |

::) Well said. You're more likely to thrive than drag through the next 11 years with that attitude.
