What corporate culture? All I know is that Southwest has pilot union, they get competitive salary and they love their airline. How come SW (or JBLU) don't have same issues as legacy carriers?

Yes, Southwest pilots love their airline. Southwest convinced its pilots to help pick up trash between flights. Also, all Southwest employees I've ever spoken to absolutely love their company. They practically gush! There's something up with SWA's corporate culture. So much so, Herb Kelleher cited it as a competitive advantage!
Well, that still doesn't explain why pilot's union doesn't take 95% of their profit, does it?
