Default Airlines running fuel margins thin

Heres a report from WABC that apparently aired on Good Morning America
this morning:
http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?se...cal&id=5747236

appears the airlines are using minimum fuel as much as possible to
reduce fuel burns and costs. Seems to me that some good glider
experience could become a hiring requirement at the majors if they
keep this up.
