He uses the completely wrong metrics - an airline can have great "Miles per gallon per ASM" by flying around a lot of empty seats. A more accurate measure would be gallons of fuel per revenue passenger mile.
Interesting point. I didn't even think of that but it's true.
JetBlue - lowest fleet age and best fuel economy of any US carrier. Coincidence?
