Why SWA Loves RJ's
Having the unfortunate pleasure the other day spending over 2 hours in a RJ 50
I can now see why people Love SWA. With their meager payment they get a full size airplane.
On the other hand on a RJ you get full service fare for 2/3 of a seat.
2/3 of a coke
2/3 of a window
2/3 of elbow room
1/2 (or less) of the overhead room
2/3 bag of peanuts
2/3 of a flight attendant
2/3 of a chance of being able to get on
2/3 of a flight crew (usually looks like some flight instructor paired up with a retiree up front)
2/3 of the leg room
2/3 the chance of the flight breaking down and CX'ing
all this for 100% FULL FARE
If I could be King for just ONE day
