New King is Crowned: Southwest Now Officially “World’s Biggest Airline”

March 13, 2008 | Posted in: Airline News,Passengers,Southwest | 0 comments

According to the latest figures on U.S. airlines from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, Southwest Airlines is now officially Number One.

Yes, the scrappy, no-frills airline has finally dethroned American Airlines: in 2007, Southwest carried more passengers than any other airline (101.9 million passengers, compared to American’s 98.1 million).

American had topped the list for the past 5-years.

Unlike American, Southwest clawed its way to the top with no international flights, only domestic runs (America still ranks first among U.S. airlines for international passengers).

Meantime, 2007 was a record breaking year all around, as you’ll see if you keep reading…

AirTran Takes Off…Minus Passengers

March 13, 2008 | Posted in: Delays,Passengers | 1 comment

From the classy corps at Consumerist comes word of an AirTran flight that, uh, forgot a few things…like some of their paying customers.

It seems a young couple flying from Baltimore to Boston learned their AirTran flight was going to be delayed. But, being savvy fliers, they knew enough to get to the airport on-time anyway (as we all know by now, “delays” can and do change).

When they got to the gate area, they learned, yes indeed, the flight was still delayed for 2-hours, so they walked down the airport corridor to get some wings (no pun intended).

They sat where they could hear AirTran announcements. Guess what they heard?

NEW Southwest Girls: “Don’t Hate Us Because We’re Beautiful”

February 22, 2008 | Posted in: Ask Rick,News,Passengers | 2 comments

What IS it with poor Southwest, that they keep attracting attention-seeking hotties?

We all remember Kyla Ebbert (if not, click here). Now there are two new young women (Nisreen Swedberg and Sarah Williams, aged 18) who say Southwest “discriminated” against them– but why?

“I think they were just discriminating against us because we were young decent-looking girls…[The flight attendants] were like older ladies. We were younger. Who knows, they could have been just jealous of us because we were younger.” — the “youthful” Sarah Williams

My goodness! What prompted all this? Keep reading (and see the video!).

More Cheap Airfare Sales on the West Coast? JetBlue Heads to LAX

Starting in May, JetBlue will begin flying out of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

The lower cost carrier will add 3-flights a day between LAX and New York and one between LAX and Boston.

JetBlue and Kraft Team Up, Make You a Product Tester

February 6, 2008 | Posted in: Airline News,Passengers | 6 comments

The idea of free meals on an airplane should make us happy, right? After all, most in-flight food has been reduced to a bag of peanuts and the soft drink of your choice. Some airlines don’t even give you that for free (i know you all haggle to get the entire can), and those that offer full meals are fond of charging upwards of $10.

That said, there is something about JetBlue’s new free breakfast giveaway that rubs me the wrong way. The carrier has teamed up with Kraft, and together they will be serving 500,000 free breakfasts to JetBlue passengers. However, as with most things on the airlines these days, there is a catch…
