No measurable insider ownership, all institutional. LT debt is 3x cash on hand, 7 analysts currently following. Unfortunately this whole industry is very volitle based on oil/fuel costs. Just under 1B in negative cash flow last year. I don't know that I agree that you're going to get much revenue by charging extra for window seats or sitting at the front of the plane. I personally switched to another airline when I found that they wanted to charge me for a window seat when checking in online, versus taking whatever was left upon arrival at the airport. Of discount carriers, AirTran and Southwest are the best to fly, and of the main carriers I pick American. No doubt this stock will go up just because the industry has been beaten to a pulp, but long term staying power is not thre unless they do some serious re-thinking at the top. I'll be optimistically watching and hoping the guys at the top can come up with better ways to increase revenues, decrease costs, and attract passengers.
