If any of you people get the Atlanta Journal Constitution, look in the Sunday Business section (date: sept. 14, 2003). There is an article that compares DL to AirTran,. and there's a little passage on how well AirTran is doing compared to Delta.
There are also several pojnts made by market analyzers. One such analyzer made a statement that AirTran may operate transatlantic by the end of the decade.
Do you guys think this is possible? Could AMerica's low-fare carriers become intercontinental? I think they cannot, simply because of their no-frills attitude. Airlines like Southwest, jetBlue, and AirTran thrive because they take a person from point A to B, and that is it. If they were to operate transatlantic, then they would naturally have to provide meals and other amenities. Unless they become a full-fledged full service airline, i seriously doubt it.
