Attention SWA pilots.....

Overkill on SWA's part.

 

[Hvy]

It's not that bad...
considering all the bs thats on TV.

Oh....yes, it is. We expect respect from the traveling public then present ourselves in that fashion? It's bad.

A buddy of mine was the Captain in one of the first commercials. All you can see of him is his arm reaching up to the overhead during push back. Made 11k on the deal.

If someone paid me 11K I would have no problem dancing in the street wearing a tutu and singing (and I have a gawd awful singing voice)

 

[DX Rick]

I know the guy... good dude.

principal lead in a national ad campaign... yeah he'll be strummin' that guitar all the way to the bank!

Cheers!

I know him from C8 as well, very good guy.

Overkill on SWA's part.

Overkill is what this thread has turned into. The fact we are even talking about it means that it's working. People don't care about whether the commercial is corny or not. They only care how cheap the fare is and whether they have to shell out and extra $50 bucks to check 2 bags.

I have talked to several dudes in those commercials and they have made some nice coin. I don't like the guitar spot, but I bet that dude adds at least 30K+ into his W2!!

What about the jetway apparitions in DEN? One of our highest AB capts is in that deal!

 

[FlyinGuy]

That jetway scares me every time I run off to get food!!!

 

[Cruncher]

Trip, what the initials (of the highest AB)?

Definitely AB...... I doubt the guy is in a "cartel", as I assume one needs basic social/communication skills to establish oneself in one.

The guy I'm referring to is the one giving the "Tool Time Salute" to, well, TOOLS!

Not sure which one that is, but is definitely not the one I was referring to.

There CAN'T be 2 of him!
