      @@WorldWide_Dom probably flown about 400 flights on them and only h ever had 1 canceled flight. I fly them almost exclusively even though they usually cost slightly more. The flight crews are courteous, friendly and I also like they still do the safety briefing in person instead of a prerecorded tape! When I fly other airlines like on their partner flights using American Airlines I find them to be somewhat snobby or rude

    Thank you for the review. I prefer a quick list of things that to review on an airline, since I have flown most them in the U.S. 1. Seat comfort, 2. Leg room, 3. entertainment, 4. Snacks, 5. In-flight employees professionalism and courtesy, 6. Baggage checkin and gate personnel professionalism and courtesy, 7. Baggage management, 8. Price competitiveness, almost forgot - 9. Boarding process. I have flown many cross country trips over the past year, and would add a #10 to this list = Frequent non-stops to a variety of destinations outside of the airline hubs.

Anyway I look at it like this, to fly from LAX back East to Maryland will cost a pretty penny, anyway, therefore I might as well spend the money and not be too cheap about it. Best.🤚

    I’ve only flown with them between Seattle and Tri Cities WA on their bombardier q400s. Very basic but is all you need for a short 40 minute journey. There was no oxygen mask demonstration so I’m guessing the plane was flying low enough that it wasn’t needed

      Least worst is the best way to put it. I try to have little to do with the big three, United, Delta and American, flying Alaska or Hawaiian. I have flown over 80 Airlines, although I don’t remember my first flight in a DC3 during WWII when I was a few weeks old. Have crossed the Atlantic many times and the Pacific a few times. The subsidized European lines were the best, but regulations have eliminated most subsidies. I have been astonished at how many airlines have gone out of business, including more than 50 of the airlines that I have flown. I have flown a few of the cheap airlines like Ryan, Southwest, and Jet Blue. Hate them! Mostly fly business class on European lines.
