GSP, so close to ATL yet so far..........

Charleston, what a great city! Hopefully you guys will stay in town not by the airport like we did. I think DAL stays close to King Street?
 
No subsidies as terms of agreement. Great news for poolies and line pilots. SWA usually starts with 10-12 flights initially. If history is any judge MDW, BWI, MCI (STL) and/or HOU or MCO.

Keep the faith poolies, 2011 looks good.
 
Hello BMW employees, thanks to the atc delays to atl I bet many will shift over. Nothing like a 20 min flight being blocked to 1:20...... Smart move Gary
 
oh yes they do... what's that saying... 'the bigger they are the harder they fall, i mean fail'..jk But I do think SWA is going to kick tail in these new destinations. Look out DL
 
The big question is what cities will see less SW service?
They state ASM's will stay the same. CHS and GSP are relatively small fish in the grand scheme. Less BUR/OAK? Less long haul? Something has to give.

You do realize that Southwest is largest domestic carrier in the USA?
 
Rah, rah. Do you people sleep in your SWA jammies? Do you keep a framed picture of Herb on your mantle with a lit votive candle? Get a life.

Um, what? ATC delays to ATL? Not really chief. Very few. KATL is a very well run airport, very efficient, and of course you guys don't really know much about ATL anyway. I haven't had to hold for ATL in a couple years now unless it was WX related.

So, when does CHS to LBB start, or CHS to ISP? Those flights will be FANTASTIC I bet for you guys. Too bad most of your flights through those cities (CHS and GSP) will be just a blur, since your routing that day might be BWI-STL-MSY-MCO-CHS-BWI-ISP. You may have to run through the terminal looking for food, which is probably normal anyway. Regardless, enjoy it.

Thank Gawd I married a rich girl. Who is the guy you married? Was he from Ronkonkama (ISP)? Did you meet him on the ramp? Was he a ramp tramp? I bet he was. Your flying is boring, tiring, and will always be that way. One plane type forever, 6 cities a day, and LBB at least once a month. When the rest of the industry catches up to your current pay, there will be nothing left for you to brag about, since you currently are a highly paid regional pilot.(multiple leg days with quick turns) Try to enjoy that. At the end of your trip, you won't remember if you hit GSP or CHS. Sad but true.

I am glad you married a rich girl, dog. Did her master leave his fortune to his beyotch when he died. Its the only way that load of crap is true. I have flown alot of types all over the world, so if that trips your trigger, that and beastiality, then have at it. I choose to take the money and stay domestic, I like it better. Good luck with the flea and tick problem.

Um, what commander, I work for ASA and do that flight all the time. You don't hold coming in the atl anymore you sit your butt on the ground for 50 minutes when you call for push after the damn cld guy said "nope no delays, just call five prior".
 
That guy is a liar. Not one thing he says can be believed. That having been said I am going to try to be nicer to people who are lesser than I am, that being General Idiot and the rest of his ilk.

No

But many of us will not spend 6 or 8G at the chance to get hired. We work at companies that pay for our training and then pay us for working at their companies.

Yes, you do, but you're #2 behind a 737.
