Tim Sieber Quotations

Poor on-time performance is the airlines' fault to the extent that people want to buy their products - the fares are ridiculously low. There's a highly competitive market that benefits consumers because they'll get somewhere cheaply. They just might not get there on time.

Obviously the schedule charter business has not been successful for them.

It is costing more and more money to heat my home, more money to fill up up my car. It gives me less disposable income for a trip.

You can't criticize Independence Air's management for trying something, but it was apparent it wasn't working after a month. They should have changed it then, but they were all too busy drinking the Kool-Aid.

The airlines are being constrained by an air-traffic control system that is billions of dollars behind where it needs to be financially and decades behind where it needs to be technologically.

They can't do that now because the next flight is full, too.
