Okay, so there was a little stupidity involved....

Really, I don't know why I didn't start flying Southwest years ago. They're competent, courteous, and civilized. They're the best airline when you fly with a kid, because they're the only ones who'll still let you preboard. And they even offer tolerable amounts of legroom.

I really do not like Southwest. It really is the cattle herd boarding that does it for me. I like my assigned seating. Hell I go to movie theatres that have assigned seats.

That's one of the things I like best about Southwest. As long as I'm either traveling with Annabel or I make sure I check in early enough, I don't have to worry about being in the back row with someone reclined into my lap but no power to recline myself, and I can guarantee myself an aisle seat when I'm traveling alone.

A number of people wrote in to complain about its insensitivity re terrorists.

Well, terrorists are insensitive to me, so fuck 'em.

For me, because I am usually traveling alone, it's the boarding that does it on Southwest. Sure, if I print a pass from home, I can usually get A, but I feel like other airlines, I can get there, check the flight, and then go buy some food or a book or whatever...Southwest, i have to line up and can't go to teh bathroom unless someone agrees to hold my place in line!

That and the fact that you can't easily hop on an earlier flight. Not that other airlines aren't making that harder too, but...

I guess I like the Southwest system because it gives me more control. I feel less at their mercy. And somehow flying with them seems less like a visit to an inner ring of hell than my recent experiences with American and Delta in particular.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

SA, awesome hair & faboo hat!

Kristin, I'm glad you're feeling better.

Sorry about the delay, ND! That sucks.

Soz, I'm glad you're okay, but still! Freaky.

BUT DUDE! If you were on Southwest you could seat yourself AWAY from the screaming child!

With you on that one totally. Still like JetBlue myself. Poor ND. If it were my kid I would have given them the tranq dart for you. And barfing in line. Oh my. I think TPTB should provide a private charter flight for ND.
