The high cost of fuel is certainly the biggest current issue for the airlines. But, there are other issues that are seldom addressed by the airlines.
Americans are flying less because the economy is in bad shape and getting worse. Additionally, a trip by air has become stressful and unpleasant because of ever increasing hassles and rudeness imposed by the Transportation Security Administration. A significant percentage of Americans -- significant enough to be the profit margin -- have decided to fly only when absolutely necessary.
Foreign tourists visiting the USA have also decreased, and this can be directly related to treatment by customs, immigration and security. There are enough verified news accounts of this poor treatment that I don't need to offer details.
So, the airlines in the USA could increase business if they demanded more courteous and professional behavior by security personnel.
