Fun fact: JetBlue only operates AirBus aircraft, as does Frrontier and Spirit. Southwest only operates Boeing 737s.

as does Frrontier and Spirit

No way, the cheaper airlines use better planes?

Starting to think the hard-on for Boeing was just part of a trade battle, like most "buy american" shit.

Boeing used to be the superior plane, but their quality control has taken a serious nose dive

Well yeah. I mean jetblues market cap is $2.4 billion. Boeings is over $100 billion

That is a fun fact.
