Why don't you guys get out and go for a walk...go to the movies...or even the gym? Tit for tat back and forth isn't going to get you anywhere. Only 2 more days and everyone will know the results. :)

You know what? You're right. All this time on my hands sitting LSR is getting to me. I'm at 9:25 this month hard time. Time to dust off the snowboard and hit the slopes!

If you would look at the year end earnings you'd see that they made out in domestic travel in 2015. Their EOY numbers showed international was down 5-14% depending on the region. Guess where we have the bulk of our seats? Also, their management didn't go for Shiny Jet Syndrome. They fly older, cheaper planes that use more gas but require less CAPEX. In this environment of lower fuel costs they reap a higher % since they don't have near the aircraft costs we do. In other words, their management out played ours, again.

Huh?!!!! I never once said Jay had any "SECRET" meetings with Oscar. What Jay said is that they met far more frequently than he met with Jeff. I'm sure the contract extension was discussed. Look if you want to live in your grassy knoll world feel free, but don't attribute it to me!!! There isn't some secret agenda to sell something to the pilot group. Go back and read Jay's "windows open windows close" letter. An opportunity arose, and he (and we will find out how many agree in 2 days) thought it was in the best interest of the pilot group.

Your paranoia is really alarming.
