I really is becoming like inner city pubtrans. Who's going to be the first airline to try to eliminate flight attendants?
Normally I'd say Spirit will.
Then again, maybe that's just another add-on service that you can pay for at the self-service kiosk along with charges for everything else you'd normally need to travel on a plane.
If you want a laugh, google Spirit and "horror".

It's going to be like flying in a Waffle House at 2:30 am. Without the good food.
Anyone else know a couple guys from High School that each had neglected handy-man businesses that sprung up between domestic disputes with girls that they met at an aborted technical college run, who one day decided that they would start a construction company together to merge their spotty clientele so they took out 96 month high interest loans on a couple F350s and slapped an askew new logo on the sides designed by one of their brother's friends who also offers at-home tattoos, so he is the creative one in the family, and then actually booked work and found out they really only knew how to demo walls and mark up raw materials, so they started getting roasted on facebook by disgruntled customers and real contractors who actually put licensure and bonding information in their responses when showing up in neighborhood group threads from people asking for referrals, and now they shuttle only the ignorant damned from one bad experience to the next while contemplating increased fuel costs associated with fleet?
I'm kinda getting that same vibe here.
For western USA...
SAN (San Diego) is one of the worst AND one of the best for me. Terminal 1 is a dump and Terminal 2 is awesome. They just started redoing terminal 1. Hopefully they actually get the trolley to the airport.
Having spent what seems like hundreds of hours in SLC, I was very confused when I stepped off the airplane this summer in a nice new facility. Had noticed some construction past years, but had no idea the plan was to replace the terminal.
You're already breaking the first rule!
Art, you're a genius.
Let's reach out to the Spiritier people, and get someone on this asap.

They need to buy some better politicians.
That odometer is going to spin so fast the app will catch fire.

Not sure what the issue is here as I think we're down to just executing on the basics of powered flight with all carriers now....i.e., no crashes, no sudden depressurization events due to unnoticed tail strikes, etc.
The level of service at all airlines is descending faster than a group of doctors in a V-tail Bonanza.

That's why they need to get rid of all pretenses. Eliminate the flight attendants, run them like the NYC subway. Get in, close the door, don't make eye contact and if you do have to sort shit out, throw some hands.
Sophie is a Spirit flyer, huh?

Easily the worst hike in SLC.
Once the new connecting passage is built it should be a ton better, but for now, it's just miles of underground walkways.
Otherwise I love the new airport. Great restaurants, the grand hallway is awesome, security is always very quick.

Nailed it. The access to gates sucks. The rest of it is fantastic. The Delta sky lounge is the best in the country.
