We (United) were like a passing team, where as Delta is more like a run first team, and the LCC's they're like punting prior to Fourth down.
It's exciting to be a part of and entertaining to watch right up until the point we throw a pick six.........hopefully that doesn't happen.

Too funny. Market Cap = # of shares outstanding x share price. Let me know when you find a CFO who thinks market cap and by extension the share price "means nothing." Ever heard of stock options or investor relations?

I'll pass. It's only a matter of time before that house of cards collapes and United is the king of hiring forever until the day they furlough.
Besides I already barely work at a too big to fail airline that's paying down debt without the attention grabbing splashy headlines your influencer CEO craves.

We're an international airline, that's out competitive advantage. Credit card miles become more valuable when you fly to places that are desireable, interesting, or different.
Can't speak to Mongolia being our next profit center, but we're doing it from Tokyo. This will likely be a 737 based out of Guam doing this trip.

7 new routes to places no other US airline flies and most Americans have probably never heard of. What could possibly go wrong?
Scott Kirby sure likes to gamble with everyone's career the way he runs that place.
In the early 2000s Leo Mullin had a vision for Delta to "fly from anywhere to everywhere". Bankruptcy soon followed. Now Delta is the most profitable airline and mostly stays on the beaten path. Seems to make sense.
Loved the social media influencer campaign leading up to this "big" announcement. I'm sure Greenland and Mongolia and some cities in Spain and Portugal that probably only Hemmingway have ever been to will excite everyone and will be major revenue generators.

Oh yes, the CEO that makes desicions in a complete vacuum being schooled by the sage counsel of the dump truck driver, errrr, pilot - sorry... Never ceases to amaze me how this profession draws so many that would have been experts in so many other careers, but have never done anything but fly a plane.

I can't speak to their commerical viability, but Greenland and Mongolia are two places I've always wanted to go, so I'm here for it as a non-rev. Only downside is I gotta get myself to Narita first? Or worse, Newark?
