An open letter to Southwest Airlines.
 

I know many of you love them. Whatever.

My A is for Awesome, too!

remember when our Dutch cellphone-pimp taxi driver almost smashed a child-sized bird on the way to the airport?

I don't know man, I got to say that as a fat guy I do find the flight from LA to Sac pretty damn exciting

decaf has <1/2 the caffeine and all the flavor of regular coffee, fyi.

Wow, someone is living an extremely unhappy life.

haha

Love it.......

Agreed. You should meet him in person, even worse.

Have you not flown US Airways?

I have, but I still mark SWA as the worst. They have good prices, but that's it.

Extremely funny read Cory. Even in all of your anger...

I don't get what your problem with SWA is. If you don't want to get on the plane first there is nothing that demands you do. If you don't want to check-in online and would rather do that at the airport, again you are welcome to do so.

Personally, I love the fact that I can get to the airport at the last minute and get a seat I want and have room in the overhead for my carryon.

The free drinks are a plus as well.

I hate them.

They once ruined my dry cleaning also.

I deduced that much.
I do not like that they don't have a spot for me to hang a suit, but that is an instance where being the first [or last] on board can help.

If you think thats bad, when I flew from Burbank to Phoenix earlier in the month, I was A4, i always do business select so im first to board - cory, the extra $15 is worth it, will keep you isolated - its great for people with anxiety. Im standing near the front not the very front, the douchebag with A1 looks at my ticket, goes "what # are you" i say 4, and steps right in front of me, i really didnt care but thought it was funny how he had to be the very first person, lol.

I joke "yeah, like it really matters whether you are first or 5th to board the plan" so the asshole, in true asshole form says something like "lets see what you would say if A30 was standing up here" as if thats a reasonable argument when youre part of the first fucking 5 people to board.

To cap it all off, the douchebag, who looked and walked like a douchebag, then goes ahead and boards the plane at the rear, he mustve thought phoenix deboards at the back like burbank, - well, it doesnt. so this jerkoff who was adamant about being first on the plane, boards at the rear so he can be the last to exit.

I like them, and I'm not even fat.

Even when I don't fly them, they still cause issues. They are the only airline departure gate that you have to squeeze through to get to another gate because they don't assign seats, and it causes ridiculous lines. They have been known to get reprimanded by airports on many occasions.

What's really funny is a good friend of mine from High School is a pilot for them. I once wrote something similar to this on a message board I have with my old friends. He saw it and emailed me, "the feeling is mutual among pilots and staff regarding the assigned seat issue."

Its illogical. Even the people that regularly fly them are of a whole other breed. They really get into the system. I just want to take off and land.

Thank You. This shit only happens on SWA. Seriously, an entirely different breed of people....

i once saw 3 blondes in bikinis get kicked off a SWA flight.

haha

They are actually known for doing that....

I hate that god damn airline. After Phoenix Forum this past year I had to fly it back to LA.

Even with the ginormous hangover I had I figured how bad could the hour flight be? Well, after the mess getting thru security.

What I didn't know was that the pilot was some malaffected former drama major from high school, or AI castoff who didn't get his shot.

HE SANG SHOWTUNES throughout the entire flight when he was bored! It was a really special torture. Of course all the people not recovering from a 4-day porn convention thought it was a hoot, so there was the clapping, cheering, and call of encore heaped on top of audio waterboarding.

SWA is a menace to travel and must be stopped.

Hi Bromaster.

i'm the guy that they hold the plane for.

you're all idiots for waiting in line while i stumble in drunk from the bar 3 seconds before we take off.

LOLZZZZZZZZZZ

anger management

Just once? LOL.
