[QUOTE="JogginFrog, post: 3240603, member: 4994"] I'm just a customer. An occasional business and personal flyer. And I mostly fly Southwest, especially for personal travel. Was thrilled when they finally expanded to my local airport (COS) a couple of years ago. Led to reduced fares on all airlines, allowing a million-person market to avoid a 1.5-hour drive to get a reasonable fare. I loved the Southwest model under Kelleher, and the current SWA model is worlds better than Frontier's tiresome nickel-and-dime approach to value-oriented travel. I'll gladly resume flying SWA when it gets through the crisis. I just don't want to hear pilots--for SWA or others--pointing fingers when they have inconvenienced customers as part of their labor negotiating strategy. That's a choice, just like management's choice not to replace scheduling software. You make choices, you live with consequences. I just don't think pilots should position themselves as the champion of the consumer when they occasionally use consumers for personal advantage. [/QUOTE]
