Whoops I see it now. But I'm also under no illusion - the intra-CA routes I'd like B6 to operate for my benefit are likely to hemmorage money and will probably never happen. More realistically I'd be interested to see how B6 develops their LAX strategy and if the partnership with Jetsuite at BUR develops further.

Like nsx posted upthread I've also befitted on WN as a passenger due to the B6 competition on SFO/OAK-LGB routes. Recently I've had much more transcon flights than usual and I've come to really enjoy and value the B6 product. Unfortunately for me, most of my travel next year is looking like intra-CA which likely means shifting a lot of my travel back to WN next year.
