RDP's are the worst. It seems like they are never looking out for others. But get upset if you don't try and help them out.

Southwest now? HOU? You mean IAH and ORD.

I heard from a friend who dated a girl whose cousin used to date a SWA mechanic, and apparently it's a done deal.

Personally, I have always given up my seat and taken a cabin jumpseat to get another pilot on board (you know, never leave a pilot behind). I won't anymore. What has been your experience lately?

Unfortunately this is par for the course for most of the DAL commuters I've seen. I'm thankful that I commute on our own metal, and sad to say I've had more than my share of DAL guys making comments to our gate agents and crew trying to get a seat.

It's not the airline. It's the pilot. But then again, given Delta's HR screw-up the other day with their totally inappropriate comment about the use of their logo by guys just trying to put together a nice packet for their interview, in their case, it probably is the airline.
