that I don't know. I've always assumed that, at least
for Southwest, it's a fair chunk of their business.
One can deduce from the difference in the way they
price tickets for business as apposed to leisure
travel that business travel is the more captive
market. What I do know is that in the highly
seasonal tourist business one bad year can make
a pretty mess of things.

I find it interesting that Greyhound is currently
on a role. although I haven't looked to deeply
into it I take it to imply some change in spending
patterns. again, without any profound knowledge
of the company, a quick look at the chart shows
that it (BUS) got killed just before this bull
market found its legs, and is now picking up again.
