Default Re: JetBlue Asked Airbus For Better Price Due To EasyJet Deal

This sounds like the arguement of foreign vs. american made automobiles. Ever since the foreign vehicle came into the U.S. market, american car manufacturers have been struggling to make a car that can actually compete with the Hondas and Toyotas. I have owned three Honda Accords, each time stepping into a newer model due to those damn deer everywhere. They take the abuse of North Dakota cold winters and drive well in the snow. They also have a great air conditioner for the hot and sometimes humid summers. In my and most of america's opinion, certain foreign car manufacturers make a superior product and I don't know why someone would want to by a lesser product. Now the point of the post:

If Airbus makes a better product and sells it cheaper, why on earth wouldn't you buy it. That is the nature of humans, purchase the cheapest product that has the best quality. I know very little about these two companies and it's up to your own personal opinion which one is better. As the business aspect of it all, buy what is best for you business. Apparently Easyjet found it cost prohibitive to diversify its fleet and buy Airbus. Only time will tell if they made the right decision.
