Let's see, Fewer Flights, Fewer Passengers, Higher Fuel Costs...and more Furloughed Employee's...I guess this is kinda like being excited for a teenager that can tie his/her own shoe laces.
Actually, even with the fewer flights and fewer pax its a good thing. If you figure fewer agents all around (and many of those left wondering if they are going to be here next month) they could really put a ding in the numbers if they wanted to. To the contrary though, those still here are doing a great job even in the rough times.
