Hell, airlines can't seem to sell their tickets at $300 and survive. I wish the government would just let the market work and stop the airline bailouts.
Interesting since Continental has made a profit and not entered Bankruptcy since Sept 11.

The market is working, you have no idea what you are talking about, in fact Continental could argue, like American they got little to no help post Sept 11th and still survived NOT in Bankruptcy or with a bailout. Continental and American make profits on the LatinAmerican and Carib ops. The price structure is fine. People just have to understand there are not $10 tickets to be had, realistically, in markets. Aviation does not work that way, especially with $5 a gallon AvGas.
