#5 You want an immediate fix? Be careful for what you ask for.

Dear airlines, the time to accommodate your schedules are over. Safety first. You have overgrazed the commons. There is only room for so many aircraft to take off, land, and occupy airspace. There is a limit and that limit will be enforced. You will bid for space which by the open market will make peak travel very expensive and less profitable. Let the market decide and your keen ability to balance price vs cost to determine who gets what space. No loss leaders!
