I'll grant you that USAir has the best east coast network; however, it is difficult to be loyal to USAir when you have to fly to Salt Lake, Boise, etc.
USAir also seems to constantly be on the verge of financial difficulty even with my paying $700+/- to fly from PHL to CLT.
You can't very well defend USAir for their business sense given their current financial state. If you remember, a year ago United was going to gobble them up.
Maybe they need another bailout from British Airways.
What happened to the announcement that USAir was going to start flying into Portland, OR?
I guess that's enough sarcasm from me. I haven't been a big USAir fan lately given the continual cuts. At one point I use to fly out of my way to fly USAir, but no more. </font>
Those are the words I love to hear as a rep, IMHO, it's people like you who should be writing letters or something to tell upper management this is why their planes are only 70 percent full. Regarding expansion in the western USA, I believe most of the union contracts prevent US from using contract support for ramp/customer service, whereas the caribbean does not.
