kdinino, excellent post! You could not be more correct.

For the jetBlue skeptics out there, they simply don't understand that the situation at jetBlue is not nearly as bad as at most legacy airlines. I know I've said this time and time before - but jetBlue was built for the tough times. While all the other airlines were bleed cash (and the majority still are), jetBlue was very profitable. They overcame many challenges - let's not forget the privacy scandal in mid-2003, skepticism from being based at JFK, fierce competition mainly from AA and DL, and many other factors - and they will most likely overcome the current challenges and those that lie ahead.

Let's all pray that fuel prices stay where they currently are, if not decline at all. JetBlue will be in business for many years to come - people love thet jetBlue experience domestically.
