JetBlue is true blue! Red, white and blue!
Ya' gotta love the little guys at JetBlue for standing up to the backroom dealers that have tried to steal Love Field from the traveling public.
Here is this afternoon's latest development from the Dallas Morning News.
What right, on earth, do a little clique of airline executives and city bosses have to demolish an important piece of transportation infrastructure. Yet the deal worked out in secret between local governments would destroy at least six gates and an entire airline terminal.
I hate to sound like an old railroad guy, but once you tear up the tracks, they will not be put back any time soon.
Airline travelers deserve convenience and competition. The so-called compromise provides none of the above.
Here is this afternoon's latest development from the Dallas Morning News.
JetBlue Airways Corp. founder David Neeleman said Thursday he has asked the Federal Aviation Administration to block the local Wright amendment compromise or pull federal funding from Dallas Love Field.
JetBlue supported efforts by Southwest Airlines Co. to repeal the Wright restrictions, Mr. Neeleman told The Dallas Morning News. But the latest deal is unfair, he said.
