I wouldn't even begin to try and predict what will happen with the traditional airines or the no frills companies. I can only decide that FOR NOW, while I have a choice without paying a huge difference in price, I prefer to fly on airlines that provide me with service (AA has been very kind to me in many circumstances, and I have no status) or at last pretend to try and accommodate me (which Southwest did not). I may some day be forced to compromise and fly an airline that I don't like, but while I can, I will patronize those that make me feel like a valued consumer.
