Not to mention UA, AA, and B6 are going after the jugular on the transcon market now. All 3 can offset the losses on other routes, but that is something that VX can't do given their small route network.

I would say that AA is, but UA and B6 aren't really making much of an effort. But AA is serious.

Well just after VX made the announcement of BOS-SFO, LAX we started BOS-SFO again and just announced we are going to start LAX with 2 daily flights to JFK and BOS. Also it appears a fare ware is starting to develop between us and VX on these routes. I think out guys in FSC aren't taking to well to VX being in JFK and BOS.

Crankyflier is updating his spreadsheet (linked to in my post above) with load factors for each month (perhaps we could put this in the FAQ?). He just added November numbers, which showed considerable uptake on the ex-SEA routes (from low 60's combined up to mid-70's... though you'd think Thanksgiving is a big part of that).
Anyway, it's nice that we can see this.
