Maybe US Air finally figures out the math they can cut 37% customer (which translate to a much lower percentage of revenue) and 37% capacity and still come out ahead...

For biz travelers on cheap fares, now the perks are gone. I guess they will compete on the schedule and route system instead. If all majors follow suit, the effect will be just even out...

After all, business travelers will still travel. Leisure travelers will still go places. The only ones who got screwed are just mileage runners...
