2 of America's Favorite Airlines Are Increasing Fees
The last couple of years have not been kind to JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ: JBLU) and Alaska Air Group (NYSE: ALK). Rising fuel prices have pinched profitability across the U.S. airline industry, but due to competitive dynamics and other factors, JetBlue and Alaska have had more trouble offsetting these cost headwinds than some other carriers.

I wanna see the data that they used that says these are to of America's favorite airlines. They are not even in my top 5.

My experience with JetBlue has been somewhat limited. No complaints, but not superlative, as I recall. Alaska has been my airline of choice for the last 10 years. I am a member of their FF program and have been super pleased with their rewards, their definite customer first attitude and their cooperative agreements. Just last year I used about 10% of my accumulated miles to fly on a partner airline, Air France, from NY to Rome and back, Because I wasn't able to get First Class on the return, the FF representative suggested and booked my return with a 4 day stay in Paris, so that I could fly First the entire way. My prior experience with Delta is like comparing a Yugo to a Ferrari. I ran from Delta to Alaska and have never looked back I will live with the fee increases, as the exist, but doubt they will impact me much, since I usually fly in Business/First for any flight over 2 hours.
Kind of like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer being your 2 favorite neighbors.
O.K. Forrest, where did you come up with that little piece of depravity to parable airline competition. Civility is a dying art. Mostly from the losers!
And the degradation of the flying experience continues. It's all about fees and perks now. No more is the passenger central. We are just cattle now.
