Continental execs qualify for bonuses

http://www.usatoday.com/usatonline/2...5/4534316s.htm

"Continental Airlines CEO Gordon Bethune qualified for a $162,800 first-quarter bonus, in effect because his company lost less money than its rivals.

The airline's first-quarter operating loss, excluding write-offs, was less than a targeted $126 million, so Bethune and other senior executives earned bonuses equal to 62.5% of their salaries."

So what bonuses did the passengers qualify for?
