Jim, question not the "Performance Leadership Initiative" demonstrated by the accountants running this airline.We're exhibiting Customer Experience Leadership by ceding markets to WN.Our passengers obviously don't want to ride regional jets across much of the network, so we're allowing them to ride another airlines mainline equipment.
AMR views passengers as an annoyance and is doing their best to insure that the level of annoyance is reduced as much as possible.
I wonder if we could convince Gordon Bethune to come out of retirement and turn this sinking ship around.The wunderkind MBA children have gone off the rails and lost focus on what exactly it is that an airline does.
I expect we'll hear an announcement about selling the JFK white elephant to Delta soon enough.
