This airport is considered the most stressful in the country — and it’s not JFK or LaGuardia

Tyler was one of the most charming airports I've been to with a very nice little observation patio and great facilities for the traffic volume. Weird.

Hated that place. It was my bad luck airport when I was on the 145 at Eagle-voy. An emergency, a birdstrike and a junior man all in the span of less than 1 year.

Why would they care about the 'help'?

I didn't fly Aspen at the old airline, but heard many stories including an FA asking some kids what they wanted to drink one time. They didn't answer and the mom (au pair?) replied to the FA that the kids don't talk to the 'help'. I would've lost my shizzz.

As I recently told an FA who was frustrated with an entitled customer with status, but seemingly handled it well and was up front venting a bit before we closed up, "There's a reason I'm up here and not back there...I wouldn't make it past week 1 of probation."

Seems like the biggest thing to de-stress air travel has been maybe a change in training/guidance for the DHS (TSA) presence.

No more of the loudest one they could find pointing their mouthhole up to the ceiling, going wall-eyed to yell twice a minute “okay dummies I already told you take off your shoes, empty your water bottles, laptops out, belts off!!! Noooo shoes!!”

And then the next-loudest one 25 feet away giving contradicting instructions.

Cry me a river for the rich ppl in Aspen. 1 BR workforce condos in Aspen with deed restrictions still go for north of 800k. The controllers there all live over an hour away and barely make six figures.

I was just on a field course that spent some time in the Roaring Fork valley…the traffic from Glenwood Springs up to Aspen was as bad as Houston every morning from all the workers who can’t afford to live any closer. It was bizarre.

I’d never walked around Aspen before, that place is next level douchey.
