Fares are slashed to vie with the new arrivals

Article Abstract:

Southwest Airlines announced its plans to operate flights from Philadelphia International Airport starting 9 May 2004 and US Airways and other major carriers lowered their fares to match what the big discounter would charge on those routes. US Airways, which is working to lower its operating costs so that it can withstand the decline in fares, carries about 59 percent of the passengers at Philadelphia airport and has more than 5,500 employees in the region.
