"For Jack Stelzer, a retired Houston-based airline consultant and senior airline executive, United's announcement sparked some unease. He said he wishes United would invest more in the city and add international routes instead of ceding ground to foreign carriers that have entered the market the last couple of years.
"'I'd be somewhat concerned about how United seems to be backing away from Houston in small steps while other carriers are coming into Houston,' he said."
Isn't that the whole United story since the merger, in one market after another? When are they going to fight for market share, or try to stimulate traffic, instead of reflexively "ceding ground"?
