It is quite easy to pump and dump a stock but in the process you will also destroy the value of the brand. Going the route of the legacies and ULCC would make jetBlue a very weak option--especially in the west where there is limited service on B6. I go out of my way to fly them now but would not do so if they start eroding the product and charging fees for every little thing.
