WAW is alright, but you're correct, LOT owns it.  I love your country by the way.  

They don't drop it to one dollar (euro) no, but they do undercut the competition by $20-25.  These "upstart" airlines usually fly routes to tourist destinations like Florida and the Gulf and Atlantic coasts so the fares are generally $99-$150.  DL just adjusts their fares to $74-$100.  They know what their bottom line is on the route and with todays accountants, they won't go below it, that's why I recommended on another thread a script that won't allow you go below a 1 euro profit on a route.  For some planes that would mean a rock bottom fare of 35 euro and on another; 20.

I know what you mean, but then it goes back to whether or not the airline can pay off the gate (like I mentioned earlier, you also need to make enough to pay off the gate). Some would also complain of hte game losing it's competitive advantage (though I think if the two airlines talk it out, some good could come out of it.)

 I should add I live in the US (Central Florida to be exact), but I have visted Poland once when I was younger (Polish Blood, pretty much all family lives there.) Should probebly plan to make another trip to visit. Watching the Polish Channels we get from Satillite, seems quite a bit has changed since i was last there in 94', but Poland is quite nice, espeically in the country side.

I'd love to, but with so much school in the way for me these days, making the time to go is pretty hard.  :cry:
