Midwest Airlines recently went from having “Signature Service,â€￾ with wider seats on its Boeing 717s, to stuffing “normalâ€￾ coach seats onto the back half the plane and charging $50 extra for the right to sit in the wider seats. The same wider seats that used to be the norm.

Good luck trying to get your company’s travel office to pay for that extra $50 upgrade, each way!

Well, friend of the blog Robert P., a longtime Midwest Airlines booster, has had it. He has written a great letter to the CEO of Midwest Airlines, in which he compares the airline to Schlitz Beer.

Tim's Ego has set this up. AirtTran tried to make a deal. Tim refused it. IMO, Thank Gawd!
I wish the best of what is left at Midwest!

Yeah....how many of you would be flying today had Air Tran been successful? Save the Cookie, Kill the airline. Now from what I understand, Midwest is grounding more planes and going to the ERJ, laying off even more. AirTran on the other hand is still growing.

Which trail would I want to be on....one of a long painful death, or one of a brighter future in 2009. You made your cookie, now enjoy with your milk!
