What would I tell executives....trying to create a pseudo full-service carrier with a untrue low cost advertising line that lacks class isn't going to work. It presents a minimalist impression with non-minimal prices. JetBlue and Southwest and the like will likely continue to get the bargain basement hunters and travelers who like a no-frills attitude.

US should step it up - be a rational fare airline with classy premium service and decent coach service. Look at DL - a choice of snacks even on a 134 mile ATL-BHM CR7 flight. Mints passed around on RJs prior to landing. US offers no benchmarks. Look for benchmarks and create a good-service airline without excessive frills and create a rational fare structure. Be geared to business travelers - take care of elites - and provide decent enough service so that most junk traffic will be willing to pay a small premium - only try and compete with WN to fill extra seats during off-peak times. Also, understand that aircraft choice does matter - kill CR9s on anything over 90 minutes.
