What's great about this industry is that there is a carrier / alliance for everyone. Some people only want to fly the legacies, some people fly both the legacies and VX and some people fly the bottom-of-the-barrel NK and G4. We, fortunately get a lot of people who fly AA/UA and us very often. I had a few AA EXP's in my FC from LAX - BOS and SFO - JFK this week, so there are quite a few who enjoy what the legacies offer as well as what we offer. I am one who enjoys both the VX product and AA (despite their service flaws). This industry is big enough for everyone. Now if we can just start to translate our high load factors into consistent profits
We work extremely hard at VX to create a product that people love. Posts like this are very disheartening, but despite that, I am always open to everyone's points of view.
The reason is because I want AA to expand.
Your company does one good thing-keeping fares low on my preferred carriers, I will admit that.
As for better service, legacies clearly aren't trying to improve given the latest changes at UA/DL, so how is your airline improving US domestic service?
(Internationally I can fly LAN to SA, a number of E Asian carriers to Asia, and IB to Europe that have better service while being able to obtain 100% mileage on deep discount fares.)
