Right.. I am still shocked that DL is lowering itself to LCC standards, aren't you? I mean, charging their top tier fliers for "free" earned travel? Bet the DL elites never got like, flowers, and stuff....
Annnnnnd, how about this? Elite fees, matching LCC, *and* complaints? Who knew? I hope FFOCUS is, like, totally all over this:

Can you take it?
Oh, and this one bears repeating: I thought PHL was the armpit, delay prone airport of the world! Could it.... be..... no... wait.... like, EWR? Guuuuurl......

aredeeyou22....whoever you are...
Look, here's the bottom, bottom line....
The product LCC puts out in the market place is, at a minimum, one of the worst values in American Aviation. Period.
You and PB and US1 can go 'round and 'round and 'round...but the bottom line, LCC has flown a once proud carrier right into the crapper...
Lets count the ways.....shall we?
1.) Ruined the A321
2.) Downsized the F cabin on nearly every aircraft
3.) Removed coat closets and stowage space
4.) F-ed up the seat pitch, EVERYWHERE, even in the Emergency exit rows (I didn't even know that was possible!)
5.) Removed glassware
6.) Served ridiculous, pretend meals in F while the rest of the industry serves better food
7.) Removed IFE
8.) Gutted the DM program
9.) Removed service....basic WARE f-ing service FOR GOD'S SAKE!!! in the Y cabin
10.) Taken all the bonuses away from "Preferreds."
(
I could add 40 more "enhancements" these "well intended" jacka$$es have made to the product, but I'm bored.)
So, you can needle PB and US1 ALL you want about how this is happening and that is happening...
But guess what?
Yeah, the Sand Fleas infesting the Sand Castle are working TRIPLE time to get to 150 way to make US the WORST product in the history of American Aviation....and frankly, my money is betting on them to accomplish that mission and goal.
Serious....I LOVE US Airways...the people anyway...but if you think for a half second the product being assembled by the "brain trust" in Tempe is something frequent business travelers are "anxious" to buy....you may well consider a trip to a psychologist...'cause ur wrong! And if you think the other airlines are anxious or purposely following US into the depths of the hell you are creating, then think again...after today's announcement that US is pulling IFE from the aircraft, US officially took out the ONE, last thing it had on WN...and now WN has, in EVERY way, a superior product. HOW DO YOU NOT SEE THAT?!?!?
Dear GOD, how is that lost on you people? And how do you NOT see this plan to fly this airline into the crapper was what the Sand Fleas infesting The Sand Castle have wanted to do all along????
I've moved on...and for the love of God...I need to "move on" from these boards...lol
