Theres a good chance that those soon to be launched 350s won't ever wear a USAir livery, if Southwest keeps taking marketshare from US's east coast cities Having flown US to ART 3 times now (one more time and I'm finally done), I find US to be sorry excuse for an airline. Their first class is a joke compared to CO or NW. I suppose they got the last laugh be downgrading the longest segments I have in my remaining trip to a CRJ If there are airlines that deserves to bite the dust, it'd be USAir, FlyI and JetBlue I know, JetBlue will probably stick around, but I can wish right?
