All US domestic products suck unless you can afford first class. The back of United and AA is same as spirit or frontier. The seats are uncomfortable with no leg room. You get crackers and have free movies that nobody wants to watch. Delta is supposed to be the best product, but if you get past the nice dressed crew and shiny logos, it’s the same hollow product. At least WN gives you good leg room.

Free wifi on Delta. Soon to be free wifi on United via starlink. And trailways has one of the absolute $#itie$+ wifi services in the business. And it isn't free. How can this place be so incompetently short sighted? EVERYONE is completely addicted to their device. This should be the very first thing any company in the business of locking customers away from cell towers does.
Max pay to the last day.

terrible Wi-Fi that WN charges per leg . 16-24 bucks for something that does not work .

we need to stop being cheap and start offering a great product. the current mgmt is unable to adopt this mindset and must go.

ATL has been a distressed property since day 1. They have tried to throw various things against the wall to make them stick, but it always gets walked back in the end. You just can't compete against Delta in Atlanta. They won't allow it just like SWA defends its turf in its mega stations. SAN and STL have had more departures than ATL for a while now.

Obviously you haven’t been back there in a while. It’s just as uncomfortable especially if someone reclines in-front of you, no service other than tiny biscoffs plus you have the former spirit flyers back there too. Almost no difference.

Nobody has been bought. The writing has been on the wall for ATL since BNA opened. It was either compete against the worlds most formidable competitor in their home turf and continue to get beaten or redeploy that capacity where it will make money. I don't like it because this decision hurts labor and will effect many people personally, but it is what it is.

I was talking about SWA buying AirTran. Now that they're giving up in ATL what is left of that deal?
