Well yes there are many positives with all the announcements that united has made the last few weeks.
1. They are cutting benifits for the frequent traveler so in turn higher profits for shareholders.
2. They are driving away elites from flying UA so in turn less spent on elite benifits which results in higher profits for shareholders.
3. They are charging more for current benifits to elites so in turn higher profits for shareholders.
4. They will have less flyers so they can make all their planes smaller and fly less frequently. Huge savings in labor and fuel expenses and payments for aircraft. All which will result in the highest profit ever made by any airline in the history of aviation. Shareholders have the biggest party ever with all the money they are making.
5. SMI/J is labeled and praised as the smartest business man that the world could ever see and every corporation pays him billions to do the same for their company.
Sounds great. Look at all those positives.
