This is a USAirways post despite the article's subject being JetBlue. I am commenting how JetBlue's tune of deferring aircraft deliveries sounds oh-so-very familiar to those of us who have endured US/East management fiascos for the past 17 years or so.
But switching to more short haul and deemphasizing long haul markets? What's Neeleman on?
Article on Justplanenews.com:
Fuel costs force JetBlue
to cut growth plans
JetBlue on Tuesday said it had scaled back its growth plans as rising fuel costs dragged the low-fare US airline to its second consecutive quarterly loss.
The airline plans to sell some aircraft and defer deliveries as it shifts more capacity to short-haul flying from longer transcontinental markets, and will introduce new efforts to cut costs as crude oil pushes above $75 a barrel.
