So this bugs me a lot. That the DOJ is calling out the airliners This bugs me for a few reasons.
First of all they (DOJ) deregulated the airlines in the 70's, which means they can't tell them what to do now, unless of course they want to re-regulate (is that a word?).
Second I don't think ticket prices are that high. When I can buy a ticket on SWA for under $100 for a trip that would take me 16 hours to drive I'm pretty sure I am getting the better deal.
I will be interested to see how this plays out after all the DOJ is the one that approved the big 3 mergers.
