So, USair begins with u, are you saying that USAIR should shrink to profitability?
If they can't make money DCA-FLL on a full cost basis on this fare mix, well, you say the flight shouldn't take off.
That might mean parking another plane, laying off a few more staff, further raising average costs (because junior staff go first) Depending on the lease of the plane, it may not save money parking it anyway...
I feel sorry for USAIR. An airline in a business death spiral is tough to get out of, and excruciatingly long lasting. It can be done though - Iberia have turned around, and Garuda.
