Senh: Since this is not worst news, I'll consider it good news.
Senh: What is a double-dip recession (and why would anyone want to double-dip a recession)? A recession within a recession? Does time slow down in a recession within a recession, like it does in dreams in "Inception?" Try reading this really fast.

Senh: Now, what a surprise - the airline who's not trying to nickel-and-dime their customers is the top performer. Hint to other airlines - um, you'll get more customers if you drop the baggage fees.
