February 6, 20223 yr And the Flight Attendants union is still being a bunch of bitches and not letting AA serve alcohol (or a second beverage service)...Just keep in mind that all the airline Ceos said masks weren't even needed anymore. Yet their FAs can't serve patrons... Well except in first

February 7, 20223 yr What are the bourbon options on the new SWA beverage menu? WT101 and better or GTFU.
February 7, 20223 yr I have been drinking buffalo trace on United all during the pandemic. I feel for you idiots flying on WN.

I assure you no one needed leg stretching from the 30 min flight from SA to HOU Yeah, a 30 minute flight is something completely different. When I'm flying SW, some of the legs are around 3 hours or so. I'm ready to stand when we come to a stop on those. Not sure what the longest non-Hawaii SW flights are. I know they have some 5+ hour long flights out of Orlando and Baltimore going to places like Vegas, Phoenix, etc.

February 7, 20223 yr I have been drinking buffalo trace on United all during the pandemic. I feel for you idiots flying on WN. Yep, flew United last week. Regular service. Was nice to feel normal again.
February 7, 20223 yr Yikes. I'm fairly certain I am incapable of drinking Jack. I would be like someone with rabies. My body would immediately reject it. It's not Jim Beam. I love bourbon. I would yak instantly if made to drink Beam white label.
February 7, 20223 yr The fights amongst passengers are going to be epic. If I was frontier/spirit I’d take Delta’s no fly list and send out marketing emails.

It will be interesting to watch this merger play out. I've yet to see how many of their respective routes overlap, although the combined Frontier-Spirit will be able to merge ground ops at many airports. Hopefully the new airline will he HQ'd in Denver. Over 80% of Spirit's flights compete directly with SWA which is probably one factor that leads to their PR problem of flying the most total trash from FL.
February 7, 20223 yr I had no idea Spirit had that much international. It's bad enough flying SWA south but holy shit flying Spirit all the way to Colombia? What an absolute beating
February 7, 20223 yr If two shit airlines merge, do you get a extra special shit airline in return? Let's find out!
February 7, 20223 yr I've flown Frontier twice to Denver because the seats were like $25. The seats are just vinyl over a metal frame with zero cushioning. I was almost crippled after 2 hours. I can't imagine how much worse Spirit is.

February 7, 20223 yr I had to fly Spirit once from DFW to LAX on an in and out. It was horrific. It was like flying the prison bus in Cool Hand Luke. A seat belt was broke in the row ahead of me. they got an extender and made two strangers share a seat belt. Surprised the toilets weren’t exposed like in a jail cell.

Seems like they barely have time to run down the aisles. Hawaiian Airlines, pre-pandemic at least, sold beer and wine on interisland flights. If you're nice to the flight attendant you can get a second beer, but you gotta plan it out and be ready to catch them when they're picking up trash. Helps to be in the front of the plane. It's not unusual either. I mean, you might be the only guy on that flight getting another drink, but you won't be the only guy that day.
