The first thing they said after 9/11 was "Were not going to lay anyone off" and they didn't.
They're also making money which they pass back around though profit sharing.
As for
Maybe it’s time for SW to get back to the basics and quit the nonsense.
SWA never did do "the basics" and therfore can't get back to them..unless you consider treating the customers and employees like they're actually important and creating a unique working and travelling atmosphere that's the envy of the civilised world.
That being said, it does exist in the real world and not everything is perfect. Still, I'd rather be at SWA that at Eastern or Pan Am or even AA. If only they'd accept my resume.
That being said, they are growing in leaps and bounds and each little spurt of growth makes them a little more like American and a little less like SWA. That's what they need to watch out for.
I'm a little confused though. Are you calling the AMA incident "an antic"?
