Newguy I like you but, you have some really crazy ideas.
Airlines, as I said in the other thread, historical have never made dime. This is pretty much true across the world, and across time. (Tons of airlines also went broke in 30,40,50s ...).
Looking at it another way airline travel has been heavily subsidized, similar to how bus and mass transist travel is subsidized by local and federal governments.
In countries in the world with nationalized airlines, the taxpayers paid the subsidy, which is really unfair. People who either didn't need to, didn't want to, or often ca't afford airplane flights, help make airline travel more affordable for the upper middle class flying public. In contrast as a taxpayer subsidizing bus travel helps keep other cars of the road and generally benefits the poor and elderly.
In the US, personal airline travel is subsidized by two groups of people. Business travelers and investors. Now the investors included most everybody on the board who owns mutual funds, but it is also includes fabulous wealthy people like Warren Buffet, Carl Ichan and other who spent small fortunes on their airline investments only watch them inevitably fail. The beneficaries are the middle class American who are able to afford flying thanks to the rich people.
Newguy as somebody is planning on taking a driving vacation, you want to subsidize my airline flights is beyond me. While I do appreciate the generous offer, I think you might want to keep your own money.
