Companies can absolutely betray consumers.
But can consumers betray companies? Is that a true definition of betrayal, or just an expression of choice.
I chose to fly more Delta and JetBlue (who are now flying nonstop BOS to San Juan, PR) because their extensive nonstop direct options from Boston match my new job's travel needs quite well.
Continental from Boston, besides some odd turboprop routes to places like Rutland, VT and Islip, NY, is a journey of flying through their hubs.
Though their ship isn't sinking, I'm glad to be one of the rats who already jumped off that boat. Their proposed merger with United stinks of the fatcat investors getting fatter, and the consumers losing out. When airlines #2 and #5 merge - that can't be good for competiton.
And in a separate but related story, there is a proposed AirTran / Midwest hostile takeover on the table.
