So the DALLAS news did a survey in DALLAS and came up with the top DALLAS brand name, SWA. Brilliant detective work...

Intuit #4????? WTF.... I bet 80% of the general population couldn't name one Intuit product.
Seems a tad skewed on their survey, not to take anything away from SWA...

Without taking anything away from Hawaiian Airlines, you have to compare them with Southwest. They operate 33 aircraft whereas SWA operates over 500 aircraft. Hawaiian Airlines operates 190 flights a day and Southwest operates over 3200 flights a day. Also take into consideration where Hawaiian Airlines operates and where Southwest operates. It doesn't seem like a fair comparison. I would think that it is easier to operate an airline with only 33 aircraft and 190 flights a day than an airline with over 500 aircraft and 3200 flights a day.

"IT'S ON!" vs Ninja Steve Jobs announcing any new product. Obviously a well done survey...

Marriott #20
Hilton #24

I do have a buddy that worked for Marriott, left it for Hilton, and is trying to get his job back at Marriott.

Anybody with a toddler knows that McDonald's is the No. 1 brand (or at least No. 1 brand recognized). I haven't passed a McDonald's yet in the last 6 months where my 2 year old hasn't said "French Fries!". The little one has had their fries only 3 times in his life and he is already addicted!

I thought everyone in Texas drinks Dr. Pepper?
