This is a great post, in part because it very clearly shows how such a crucial aspect of our economy is deeply tied to the price of fuel.

The airline industry is in trouble. Fuel costs will likely continue to rise and American demographics point towards a continued increase in the price of labor.

Worth checking out the post I just put up for Delta. They're able to get their fuel for $3.53/gallon, as they actually own a refinery. They also have payroll and employee profit sharing that is 60% higher than AA.
