If the passengers new about the experiment they would have caused such a commotion that the pilots would have no way of becoming fatigued. Having passengers breathing down their necks is enough to keep anyone alert.
WN has zero -200's left. We retired the last one last year. I don't think we would merge with Aloha since our cost structure (landing fees, etc.) are much lower than Aloha's. I'm sure we would love to aquire their -700's but that's it.
Bubble - I'm not understanding your point. What do Girl Scout cookies have to do with smoking?
Sure you can say "no" to the seller and if you say "no" often enough you probably won't be asked again. But non-smokers say "no" to the smoke yet they have to walk through a cloud of pollution...
Harold, I couldn't agree with you more. Although I haven't flown a legacy carrier in a while I'm not sure if the nickel and diming offers receipts for businessmen and women to include in their expense reports. Besides, I think the businesses are the ones who are paying for the air travel, right?
