I won't waste a second of my life reading that drivel, but I do know they finally got DAL's name correct. So now at least they're republishing DOT data marginally correctly.

And I'm taking my ball and you can't play with it!

Yeah.. Don't let a little thing like statistics and performance get in your way. Obviously this report is rigged if all those losers at AirTran can be number one.

Airtran has had the best product and planes in ATL for the last 10 years. I can't think of ever being on a AT flight with a miserable stew.

There's nothing worse than having to take DAL on a multi-hour international flight with a bunch of old fat miserable talking coke machines with their lazy ass do nothing attitudes.

It's interesting that they chose to keep AirTran separate. Wonder why?

Diesel,
I think I read on another mostly FA board about pax with your attitude: DAL FA's think there is nothing worse then serving an over-entitled non-revver with an obvious attitude demanding first class ass kissing on a free ticket.

I think it's a testament to the character and professionalism of the employees at AirTran, though I am a bit biased.

Kudos to my co-workers for getting the job done in the face of A LOT of adversity and uncertainty over the last year.

I agree Atlpilot, you guys deserve all of the credit. Sorry you had to deal with all the ******************** that was thrown your way.

Diesel,

I'm curious how this pertains to me since I'm a paying customer. The only non-revving I did on DAL was back in the early 90's when DAL was in its prime and that's because every other kid I went to school with had a parent who worked at DAL. The only career Deltoids that stuck with DAL after the bankruptcy were pilots, stews and mechanics.


The only first class sitting I'm doing is Business Class on AT and IMO GK is making a bad decision letting if go away. I think reasonably priced business class is a major reason why AT has kicked so much ass in ATL over the last decade. I need to make a last minute run to Baltimore next week and AT Business Class was about $480/leg and you can't beat that with a stick.

You sure this isn't really about "sticking it to the man" at Southwest?

 

[The Victors]

I'm just hoping the Air Tran folks can teach the Southwest folks how to not lose a bag.

 

[Old Crow]

You know we all, for the most part, really appreciate the SWA buyout and look forward to the future. However, it really makes me smile when I see this report and find us at the top while SWA is determined that we need to drink their "How to success kool-aid". How bout just merge the companies and get on with it.

Well great, maybe you should update your stereotype and give DAL a shot after GK takes away discount biz class. I have only flown AT a couple of times and they were very friendly, but that has been my experience in most biz class with the exception of a couple of bad experiences with US Air. You know, next time you get exceptional service, let the company know via email. Unsolicited feedback can make quite a difference.

So...

All airlines suck, the tranny just sucked the least?

One of the main reasons why AirTran continues to do well in the AQR year after year is their baggage numbers. Hopefully, SWA management can learn something from AirTran's ground operation and improve their baggage performance. Nothing is worse than trying to board a cruise ship while your luggage is still in Dayton or Atlanta.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.
