New A-330's ordered

[US1YFARE]

I could find a crackhead to put cheap pleather covering on seats and paint the bulkheads flat blue with a lame swoosh and uncentered flag. Has to be a crackhead though, a dopehead would steal it.

oh, so they are going to use the people that didn't make the cut in PHL to be rampers?

The upgrades so far can not have cost much. I could find a crackhead to put cheap pleather covering on seats and paint the bulkheads flat blue with a lame swoosh and uncentered flag. Has to be a crackhead though, a dopehead would steal it.

Are you saying the mechanics/interiors are crackheads?

Yea they're called PHL based FA's

You're right, but spending big bucks to upgrade them then dumping them would certainly be par for the course with Tempe.

i'm definitely not a big dougie fan but you have to admit that he has turned a chronically money losing airline around. Who cares if he crams in more coach seats if it results in 1 Bilion in profits since the merger was consumated? Obviously he is doing something right where Siegal and Lakefield failed. Now if you guys would just give up the USAPA/vacate Nic award pipe dream we could get our fair share of that profit. Sometimes I think the majority of the east enjoys being miserable.

this post reflects the same collective ignorance that, not ironically, plagues the ignorant "masses" (read: kool aid drinking westies).
DoUgIe did absolutely nothing. he is a disgrace, a scoundrel, and a coward. oh, lest i forget, a drunk. oh, and hedonistic. mustn't neglect the centerpiece of his antisocial profile.
you really should reflect on lakefield's resume before crediting DoUgIe with the financing supporting this airline abortion and the contracts sustaining its profits. it's laughable that you westies think otherwise. HA! laughable, yet convenient and easy to ignore fact. how consistent with the business casual "model"...compelling...
nevertheless, your post reminds me of a drink i had not too long ago in SXM. a rum floater: suspending your unsupported (yet convenient--'i don't have to think too hard') accolades for DoUgIe is a shameless and unforgivable attack on the years of service of the finest of the fine--east pilots. again, laughable. beyond laughable in this case.
DoUgIe redefines service with the "stylized" swoosh; westies redefine seniority with relativity. again, laughable. beyond laughable. but...you believe what you are telling yourself is true. that's probably the most pitiful dynamic of all this.
how's this for relativity: america west has always sucked. america west, now polluting the usair name, continues to suck.
full circle...
douglas parker, you are a complete and total disgrace!!

And whose money made the merger possible? Oh yeah, that's right, it was Lakefield, not DoUgIe.

The problem is that Doogie is alienating the business traveler (i.e. high yield) through his cheapening tactics. It works now, but as our economy begins its cyclical slide into recession we will find those profits evaporate seemingly overnight. It's happened before. The loyal FFs have saved our butts when this happened in the past. They aren't here anymore in sufficient number to do so. Doogie has placed all the eggs in the "Leisure Traveler Basket," and we will soon reap what he has sown...nothing.

You easties never cease to amaze. Hypocritical, cynical, and bitter to no end. You managed to take a thread of good news and turn it into another "Dougie bash-fest". Were all you singing Lakefield praises back when he was raping all of you? Maybe once Dougie is gone, you'll finally have something nice to say.......nah!! I doubt it.

Thanks for enlight us. Bother way, I agree that the Easties are hypocritical. They only complain and criticize when things are plane rediculus.
