Art...I HAVE flown them on a "half transcon" from MCI-OAK. I bought my lunch at the airport, but they served a snack pack with a drink service, then came around for a second drink service about an hour later. I was heading to a conference in San Francisco...my coworker would not be caught dead on a Southwest flight...so she flew AA. We both left at 9:00 a.m. I got to my hotel in downtown San Francisco (St Francis) by noon, Pacific time. I had a nice lunch, stolled around Union Square, and headed to the bar to watch the super bowl pregame show. She got in at 5:30 that afternoon.
Going home was a bit better...she left the hotel at 6:30a.m. to catch her return flight. I waited til about 9:30 to catch my 11:30 flight at OAK. I was on the ground in KC by 5:30...she didn't get home until 8. She also didn't get food. Bottom line, it's really no different, if not a little better, than coach service on any other airline.
