and they finally stopped it at jetblue and spirit and the people in congress are like, why can't whyo out of business? it doesn't make any sense. it's just they treat you worse than animals. and the reason i say that is because no veterinarian would be like, we can't treat your dog because it rained the other day in milwaukee and i'm sorry your dog is uncomfortable because one of the other dogs is fat. oh, yes. >> oh, man. julie, what do you think? >> i think that they should rule out children on airfare. like, i think on airplanes. >> i think there should be like, we know i'm banned from delta, right? >> yeah, i know you are. >> because i'm the size of a child. yeah. >> no, i think first of all, flying sucks, and i. and i get why holly was so upset. he has three kids flying with kids sucks like you. just wait. it sucks. just make sure. i mean, if anyone who's like anti-apple device for your child is crazy, if you're going to get on an airplane, like, give them the devices, do everything you can, they will probably develop, add and adhd, but it doesn't even matter. yeah, it's worth t

over the coming year we will see alaska and jetblue reconfigure.d jetblue to introduce a domestic offering. southwest will not have extra legroom until 2026. it will take some time for the strategy to play out. the premium demand is there and it is a fairly -- a very appealing time for united and delta to capture the demand. romaine: one interesting element to the rally that we saw this year in some of the stocks particularly in the last couple of months have been this idea of a somewhat lighter regulatory touch out of washington in 2025, particularly against the backdrop of a couple of mergers that did not happen for a variety of reasons. i am curious if you anticipate the potential for consolidation in the u.s. airline space next year and beyond. tom: it is possible given the change in the administration as you mentioned. i think the people in the industry would not be shocked if there was consolidation among the low cost are ultra low-cost carriers. you can point to the benefits over the last 15 years so there is a case to be made that consolida

>> for the economy, jetblue even though jetblue has operational problems.s over 3 million passengers and travel is up next year. there are production delays with boeing. a lot of pressure even with spirit in bankruptcy, there is pressure. if spirit is going to come out smaller, airfares will go up. consumers need to be savvy with loyalty cards. there are cards out there for consumers. i think the message is don't give up on the points. ask your friends in europe. they don't have these options. >> is there ever an advantage? normally, i know all of the tips you have been telling me. you take all of the points on the credit card, transfer it to the airline and don't ever let american express try to book through amex or chase sapphire card. >> transferring points with all of the value. >> every time i do that, sometimes you check to see if there's availability. and you have to go transfer. i'm always scared for this five-minute window because you don't know -- sometimes they say it could take 24 hours and you are sitting there saying oh, my god. this is not go

savi: it's a mixed group, but you have southwest in there, making a small profit this year, jetblue andpirit and frontier, either making a small profit or losing money. it's been a struggle. what you have seen since the summer is this group has really adjusted their capacity. the big difference between this group and the group making good money is, as you pointed out, having exposure to premium traffic and international, the strong demand on the international market, but also the amount of capacity they added since 2019. this is a group that kept taking aircraft during the pandemic. given the level of cost inflation we have seen, the supply for that group is too high relative to what needs to be passed through in terms of cost. what you have seen since summer is an adjustment on capacity growth, and that is making a pretty good set up here into 2025 and probably 2026 for the group as supplies starts to balance back with demand. dani: this i find so interesting, because it has been a period of back and forth. you go through covid, their shutdowns, you do not need the capacity. then you g

domestic market, some of the changes we've seen, pull backs from jetblue.titive landscape shaping up and affecting you? >> it's changing a lot. our geographies it hasn't changed dramatically. we have seen some changes in the hawaii market with southwest, but our focus on really building our west coast strength, our new international strength and really connecting these two complementary networks. so the networks we have from hawaii complementing to alaska and having more relevance to more guests is where we see that huge potential. >> what is going on right now with consumer demand relative to where we've been? >> it's strong. share ration it's strong. it's why we increased eps in the fourth quarter and full year. cyber monday we had our cyber monday, best cyber monday in our history for both alaska and hawaiian. >> i would assume tokyo and seoul would play to a corporate demand out of seattle. it's been more leisure i would assume in the past. how big of an opportunity on the corporate side? >> it's pretty big. we estimate the corporate pie for us is about
