HUH? no, the bankruptcies had everything to do with oil. If I remember right, Southwests fuel bill doubled last year. It is offly hard to survive when your second biggest input doubled, but competion says you cant raise fares.
The disruptions to travel were caused by the FAA freaking out on American and a few other airlines for much to do about nothing. That was politics and retarded government oversight but it didnt put anyone outa buisness, yet. The weakest airlines will go first, and the rest will merge to reduce competion and raise fares. Dont be suprised when American blames their miserable numbers this quarter on the gov though.
