If they want to really increase rev. though why can't they start serving airports that desperately need some love like SBA?
From the San Jose Mercury news:
Since high-priced fuel makes long-haul flights proportionately more expensive than short hops from San Jose to Southern California, (Virgin CEO David) Cush said, "we saw this as a low-risk way of putting our toe in the water." That may eventually lead "to bigger things that I know the city of San Jose wants," Cush said, but "it will be a year or so before we look at adding" other flights.
