Are Legacy Costs Really American Airlines' Biggest Problem?

I was on a Southwest flight to Paris last week......ops, Southwest doesn't fly to Paris, or Rome or London, or Africa or Tokyo or ............ You can not compare theater operations of a legacy carrier to Southwest. Yes, it takes more employess to operate a lecacy carrier for obvious reasons. Southwest has done a good job of skimming high yield domestic routes. Lets see what happens at 30 West in a B737-300.
