[Butch Cassidy Slept Here]

I aim to please!
First, as I've said previously, how much of a bargain is a $99 fare if one loses a major order or winds-up paying-out hundreds of dollars more because of some gate agent's attitude. Just based on cost companies across the nation should be giving all their business to Spirit Airlines. But they don't. Why is that PHX??
As to the idea of adopting a business practice that loses money: As a major defender of the airlines, what about the practice of "predatory pricing"--an airline that sells seats at a loss. Specifically, I cite of case of Vanguard Airlines' (now defunct) effort at competing against American Air some years ago. Is the latter OK, while a non-airline business doing the same thing is wrong?? Finally, there is nothing illegal about refusing to do business with someone. Predatory pricing, however, is a violation of the Federal Anti-Trust Act. I shall await your defense, PHX.
