US Airways' reputation seems to be haunted way back to their origins from Allegheny. That airline had a bad reputation also, and it just carried over.

I remember when US Air bought PSA out here in California. PSA had a very large chunk of the market share and a loyal following. US Air totally dropped the ball, lost or ran away all the business and then basically broke down the PSA route structure and redistributed the planes. Southwest came in and filled the void. Once again, Southwest was in the right place at the right time, and it certainly helped that US Air totally blew it.

Maybe they can ask the Government for an additional bail out. <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">

We all know that US AIR stood for Unfortunately Still Allegheny In Reality. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">
