i mean give me a break. I realize some in here are upset (hey…had I known status would have been extended, wouldn’t have upfared a couple of existing trips to make it, etc.). And that UA is far from perfect. But let’s not pretend they are anywhere near the level of the ULCCs. I mean, if you think UA is like them, by all means, move your business to them, and see how that works out.
