Conspiracy Karens and watching oldsters roast one another.

Bruh it’s like bum fights! No side really understands what they’re using as material.

I'm aware of the LAX base. But the dearly departed X-Forces who was an LAX based captain. He said trips out of LAX were mostly red eye hub to hub. Or Mexico trips. Still not getting a direct flight to SEA... from a hub.

May I suggest, Alaska Airlines?

 

[Rosstafari]

You left out a Hastings and McCook from that triangle.

I’ll take “Places I’ve encountered bedbugs while flying with Boutique” for $500, Alex.

I think the bigger challenge for Spirit and Frontier will come if Southwest *successfully* revamps their fare structure.

Are they getting out of the “fREe SnAcKs HeRe” mode?

I guarantee this new investment group is going to initiate bag fees.

CEO of the Cockpit #10:Re-Regulation or the Golden Rule?

This month, AVweb's CEO of the Cockpit fixes the industry and insults passengers nationwide in another mind-expanding column on the state of the airlines.

Or Delta!

Nobody got time to go to Salt Lake City first, yo. Self included.

Or JFK, BOS, or FLL...

But SEA, being a hub, I should theoretically be able to fly PHX-SEA direct and hopefully skip LAX, or SLC.

You could fly Frontier.

 

[Maximilian_Jenius]

Well... the problem with them or Spirit, is that you're assured a 8,10 or 18 layover. Ain't got time foe' that! I'll stick to LCC and legacies. No ULCC's. And yes, I'm aware that B6 is an LCC. If I was ever going back east, or to the Caribbean. I'd have zero issue using them. Great airline. West coast IMO needs some work though. Which even they acknowledge, when they were trying for Virgin.

Ok, I get that they are on ratty old 737-800s and they are flown by delusional fools who are attempting to set a record for simultaneously performing 160 spinal adjustment at one time on landing, but you got a problem with the Widget's 5x a day? Are there not enough choices for you? My commuting keister would love more company flights to choose from but it's better than the alternative.

You can get to Seattle nonstop from Phoenix on Frontier. No connections needed.

but they go once a day, which is delayed usually by a day...so technically you are riding the delayed flight to SEA

Ha! True.

I think that my case has been proven here. Lol.

Just buy a ticket for the day before you want to go!

even when I worked for F9, I almost never commuted on us, on reliability alone, they will get you there...eventually

You can, and you’d potentially be flying with SEA best 73NA
