The attitude survey portion of this project is a partial replication of Earl Wiener's classic 1989 study [9]. There have been a number of other similar studies since by Wiener and others [11,10,8]. In general our findings are consistent with the other studies. As will be discussed below, this indicates an impressive stability of attitudes through time and across different airlines in the United States.
