Bold statement and plan. Good luck getting on with AA or SW.
Also don't forget you have a career move. And also don't forget that the IAH base is not closing |

Ah give him a pass. Dude has probably been hearing doom and gloom from left seat Woodlands residents for last year. As was said unJeffing this place takes time. Didn't hear any sympathy from those same Woodlands guys when Fred Abbott moved a bunch of 737 staffing from EWR to IAH only cause a certain SEC Treasury said mean things about FOF.
No doubt that the captain is surprised after seeing Denver expanded and closed twice by Continental and United management after hearing from both of them that Denver has never made money for either Airline, while Houston has always been profitable and was expanding into South America which was part of the reason for the 787 purchase, to replace the 767s. |

I've lived in TX several times over the years and never found the power grid to be less reliable than anywhere else in the country. And the US is far better than most of the rest of the world for power grid reliability. That's just one of the rankings I don't care about. There are a whole lot of other bogus measurements that went into those rankings. The top 4 on that list: MA, NH, MN, ND. They're at the bottom of my list because I've got to buy a snow shovel to live there. ND is #4? Really? https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings |

You're so right. IAH sucks. If I were you, I would never bid anything remotely close to IAH. The lines suck, the people suck, the planes suck, the weather sucks,...everything just sucks.
I've lived in IAH for 25+ years...I suck too. Stay away from IAH! |

Those must be some messed up places to out pace us in the race to the bottom!! |
