Newsstand - Third Attempt to Raise Airfares Crumbles

http://biz.yahoo.com/rb/020603/airlines_fares_1.html

WooHoo!

Hmmm. Maybe the airlines will try a different pricing model next time. Maybe try reducing last minute fares for business travelers to stimulate business travel. Naw, let's just stick to what we know doesn't work. It's just like the guy driving his car and gets a big bug on the windshield. He knows if he hits the windshield wiper fluid he's jsut going to smear all over the windshield but maybe just maybe it'll work this time. What a bunch of sheep. Still it allows SWA and JetBlue to get into the market.

Great! The only problem is that after the earlier hikes, fares are still too high in most markets. When do you think the next fare sale will be that includes the Thanksgiving holiday?

Count on Gordo to try try again. Work hard fly right and charge the most. Gordo rules.

"Work hard, fly right and charge the most..." Well, one out of three isn't bad, I guess... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
