hobbesmaster posted:i too hate extra leg room and larger seats in terms of having to deal with an airline regularly, be it to cancel/rebook/reschedule fights, not having to deal with baggage fees giving all the passengers a perverse incentive to overload their carryons as much as possible that fills the cabin and delays takeoff, and overall customer experience, southwest wins hands down if you have to fly domestically regularly southwest is really good virgin is good too if they fly the route you're doing regularly

carry on then posted:serious q what do they have that makes them better than eg delta I'm gonna be honest, a lot of my positive feelings come from the fact that they have cheap frequent nonstops between Seattle and Boston with good seats and a minimum of bullshit, I am not hard to impress Hard to beat Jet Blue's legroom and inflight TV of course, but they don't fly everywhere Wheany posted:and it will be fine for as long as you do only that. then one day you're suddenly tempted to plug those earphones into another thing, you remove the dongle and as soon as you put it down, it disappears. you don't get it, it was right loving there! uh wow look at this turbonerd edge-case poweruser bullshit, who the hell ever wants to plug a pair of headphones into more than one thing it's very simple, as long as you have at least one pair of headphones per headphone-capable device and never try to switch around which phones you use with which thing, you will never have an issue with the revolutionary new wave of the headphone future -- apple users

computer parts posted:the weird part about this is that the airlines will just give you a red tag and will basically check it for free for you nah they just started charging fees to incentivize carryons give them more room in the cargo bay they can sell for transporting goods. the red tag thing is them accepting that not every plane has full-sized overhead bins and they'll sometimes have to throw a few extra bags underneath.

southwest rules if you are flying short flights because you can just arrive at the airport at boarding time and get right on the plane. idiotic airlines like American will make you check in an hour early for a 45 minute flight, what a loving joke.

I've mostly stuck with Delta due to location right now and they've been pretty fine for me. if I were in Philly I'd be doing AA. haven't flown w/Alaska or VA but I'd like to try them at some point

hobbesmaster posted:the 15 minute cutoff is so they can board standbys and still get out on time. well, i guess that's sort of a way to look at it there are things the gate agents have to do before takeoff, including finalizing the manifest and then make sure everyone is seated and close the doors and all those other safety things by not allowing stragglers on 15 minutes before takeoff, and because the standbys are waiting by the gate so they know they're immediately ready, they can finalize the manifest and theoretically push back from the gate on time if they let people on the plane 1 minute before takeoff they'd always be late, so it's always lol when people get angry at the gate with the logic that the plane is RIGHT THERE and they should be allowed on
