So American is basically dumbing itself down into US Airways. They can use all the words they want: "aligning", "enhancements" etc. The bottom line is that American is now US Air.

One word for you: Unions.

The airlines have to nickel and dime passengers because their costs are so out of whack. The unions have AA and other airlines hostage.

Yes, and at the rate of change over the last four years can you imagine what AA coach will be like two more years from now? Passengers will be lucky to have free air, let alone a bag of pretzels.
