I'm not thrilled with it either. But let's face it... United is run by MBAs not bean counters. They don't realize that the money is in the short domestic routes that we'll pay $3-500 to fly short notice weekly. They some how think they will build an airline out of 5,000+ mile flights. Personally I think United should just put the nail in their coffin now, cancel all domestic flights and declare themselves the greatest international carrier in the world. They should fold up shop before the end of 2011 and we'll be done with them and can move on to a carrier with a more realistic approach to running an airline.

I'm sure next year they will be wondering why their bottom line is hurting. No idea what happened. Time to get a fresh new team of MBAs in to figure it all out.
