From MIA I can get the LH A380 with better onboard service than the senior CLT mamas deliver.

the profits that F9 just posted do not reflect their new business plan that just went into effect.Apparently your airline knowledge doesn't extend far beyond the widget. F9 is posting profits now, and with 75% of it's flights originating and terminating in Denver, one can extrapolate that it's hub there is in the black. I can't speak for UA or WN however...
Why not? Some people are still enamored with the magic of commercial air travel. Frankly, I find it refreshing.WorldTraveler said:gasp in awe? really? do you pass out smelling salts on arrival and inform the passengers to keep one in the hand to help the passenger next to them if necessary?
you need those people to make money too. It takes more than ff's to do it ,some as we've seen can be arrogant and condescending.Kev3188 said:Why not? Some people are still enamored with the magic of commercial air travel. Frankly, I find it refreshing.
air travel is magical. terminal buildings, esp. in the US, far less so. Let's just call us a nation of practical, functional airports - but we have more 10K foot runways and ATC towers than probably just about any other country in the world - and probably a lot of them combined.Why not?

I witnessed it with my own eyes: a grown man and his buddy flying in for the Final Four, amazed at DFW terminal D. Of course he was just stepping off a flight from OMA, but still.WorldTraveler said:air travel is magical. terminal buildings, esp. in the US, far less so.

You said it was likely that none of the DEN hubs were profitable and I pointed out how that was patently false. That's all.WorldTraveler said:the profits that F9 just posted do not reflect their new business plan that just went into effect.BTW, you do realize how many employees F9 has laid off and how low their employees are paid, don't you?every airline has posted profits after restructuring and forced pay cuts.none of that is relevant to CLT, however.
bothered? with what?Let's not.
Instead let's recognize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and is completely subjective. Just because you can't be bothered doesn't make someone else's delight any less valid...
I'm not doubting that someone could be brought to tears in your presence. I'm just saying that he is clearly not the norm for the American population and probably not for the world.I witnessed it with my own eyes: a grown man and his buddy flying in for the Final Four, amazed at DFW terminal D. Of course he was just stepping off a flight from OMA, but still.
no, you didn't point out that DEN is profitable even for F9. If DEN was profitable, F9 wouldn't have cut dramatically and shifted its network away from DEN, now would they?You said it was likely that none of the DEN hubs were profitable and I pointed out how that was patently false. That's all.
