I was tempted to say another casualty of the biden administration economic policies. But it’s really obama’s policies.

And our Sec. of Transportation says....?

He says nothing. Once the airline starts talking about a cockpit, his mind just goes to another place....

Mexico flights? They can’t complete with the US Government flights. Too much risk of collision.

Wow! I know of many Air Force pilots who retired and went to work for Southwest. I hope their positions are not in jeopardy, but again, wow.

“Bush is the main one. Hobby is secondary.”

“their” == “Southwest”

Not for Southwest. Hobby is the main airport for Southwest in Htown.

I wonder if Vonlane, a luxury bus service between Dallas and Houston has cut into Southwest’s business on that route.

Syracuse is a #87 market, Rochester is #76, Rochester wins the battle of the small markets.
