Reply #50: SW is the most [View All]

stable airline out there. They wern't hit like the other airlines after 9-11 because they actually had money in the bank and didn't pay it all out to their CEO'S in over-inflated salary and bonus's. They were the ONLY airline to actully continue to show a profit. They never asked for nor received government "bail out loans" like ALL of the others did. And I might add that some of them needed more than one loan. Try and get a job with SW. It's next to impossible unless someone retires or dies. They have virtually no turnover. People get hired and they practically stay forever. I have been trying for well over 10 years now to get on with them but they just never have anything open. As for calling it deregulation. Well, do you find it a little odd that SW seems to be the ONLY airline that is "regulated". Think there might be a reason for that? And anyone wonder why after 9-11 when the airport security plan was being laid out the founder of SW, old Herb himself was called in to help head it up? Say what you will about SW but they have a damn clean record, and they do what they do damn well and the others I believe completely freak out at the thought of having to compete with them because it might mean the fat cats at the top would have to stop the milking. To me, the difference between SW and AA is just like that of Wal Mart and Costco. I'll take Costco and SW every time.
