4th Airline in as many weeks to Declare BK? Another sign of economic weakness

Gas prices going through the roof and consumers only willing to spend so much = airlines declaring Bankruptcy left and right. This economy is only getting worse.......more pain is coming (sad to say & I hate to say it).

Aloha, ATA, Skybus & now Frontier. Frontier will still operate in BK while others will face liquidation but it says something about the fragility of their finances when a credit card policy shift by their bank drives a company into bankruptcy....
