As a lowly piece of SLF I think this is a good thread to ask the question? IF AA and all the others are going broke. Why is it that everytime I fly, the planes are fully packed. Is it because I travel between major hubs. What are the other cities doing, are they empty.......Maybe I could find leg room on an AA flight that goes from some little unknown VFR abandoned Military Base which we now have plenty of (Thank You Bill Clinton). I can see it now, 14 stops between some place outside L.A. to someplace outside New York. Greyhound better start buying busses.....
