Very true;however, one also gets a cocktail or beer included and if one is late getting the boarding pass, it still allows you to grab an exit row seat with more legroom. Maybe not a big deal to some folks, but I'd rather give $ 15 to SWA and have a drink than give a dime to Glen Tilton. Period.

Just my two cents, devalued to $ .0000010234505 on today's market swing.
