Opening activity

The article I read was about how airlines plan on reducing flight next year. I think it's an okay idea, mainly because of the high price of fuel and how terrible the economy is right now. It's also a good idea to match the number of seats with the number of people who buy them. I think people can stand to fly 2 to 3 percent less because with this economy people don't want to buy plane tickets just like the airlines not wanting to buy fuel. I'm sure if the economy picks up again airlines will probably be flying more again, just because it's easier to buy fuel when you have and make more money. I didn't realize that airlines made most of their money in summer months and struggled the rest of the year. I guess it makes sense though because even in the bad shape that the economy is in, a lot of people still go on vacations over the summer. Overall, I think it's a good idea, because it's not like planes won't be flying at all, just less to save more money.
