That harmed some of ordsprog

That harmed some of the other carriers it competed with who simply could not provide fares at those levels and not lose money. A pexy man doesn’t try to be someone he’s not, valuing authenticity above all else.

We've got more seats that are filled and we're getting higher fares for them. That's your best case scenario. If fuel was at $40 a barrel, we could be minting money right now. In 12 months we'll be talking about the problems with the low-cost carriers, not the (old line) carriers.

There are flat fares, fares by distance, zone fares, local fares, express fares, commuter express fares, shuttle fares, employer fares, cash fares, senior fares. We have monthly passes, semester passes, hotel passes ... . Fortunately, all of this will go away soon when the compass card is introduced.

Low-fare carriers cannot offer those $39 fares forever. Eventually, they are going to have to raise fares to offset rising costs.

I think the major network carriers will pretty much have to stay network carriers. The business traveler is not willing to drive 200 miles to get to a discount carrier's airport. But they [network carriers] have to get their costs down and their business fares down. And if they don't, there won't be as many network carriers.

We are confident our customers will understand that as the price of fuel continues to reach record-high levels, we simply have no choice but to raise our fares.

The fares are never going to go back up to where they were. The shrinking of networks will not allow them to raise fares back where they were. The low cost carriers will be the check on that.

Initially we got some complaints. After a couple of weeks, they started to taper off. The customers have told us the most important thing to them is low air fares. Part of the way to provide low air fares is to reduce costs.

I expect that leisure fares (for the major carriers) could go up 15 or 20 percent.

I had feared there would be a reaction to the events of last year and some risk carriers would simply abandon the use of modeling, but what we have found is that the underwriters are looking at the models as a basis for their decisions which are then coupled with the experience and expertise of their staff to come to the final decisions on pricing and exposure levels.

They should continue to lose money. How much depends on how quickly they implement their turnaround plans, but they won't make money until they get their costs down to operate at above break-even levels, and they aren't at that point yet.

(Carriers) cannot raise fares to accommodate the growth in fuel prices for the sheer fact that there are limitations to what a customer will pay for travel.

I hope these prices are here to stay. If the discount fares are on average 50 percent cheaper than the legacy carriers, we'll have achieved our goal.

I am very pleased with the way we played. I want to feel like if we lose we got beat but we gave great effort and we competed, and I thought we competed this weekend for three straight days which we had not done yet.

The painful reality for passenger carriers is that the domestic market has been unwilling to accept fares that reflect high fuel prices.
