commuting suck!
I got to phx early this morning for the first flight on Mesa to fat for a 5pm show.... full with jumpseater. Second flight.... full with jumpseater.... I call crew support to tell them my difficultes, and see if our flight out of lax was open, it wasnt. I figured lax was my best shot anyway, so I run over to Southwest and get on the first flight. Our flight is overbooked with 6 standby. I called crew support to tell them, they said they would take the first leg off my trip, and I could pick it up in LA. Im now sitting in the crewlounge and I get a call from crew support saying they dont have anyone to cover the leg, and they are going to must ride me on the next flight to fat at 6:30pm, well that wasnt going to work because my first leg was scheduled to depart at 5:30. I just got a second call from crew support, they said they show me on the flight from lax to fat. I assured them that I was not currently on my way to fat. They still have noone to cover the first leg. This is my first trip out of fat... I transfrerd there from palm springs because the commute would be easier :confused:

I cancelled my mini non-rev travel plans this weekend out of PHX (I thought about going to DEN for the 3 day weekend) because ALL the flights were packed coming back on Sunday. SFO, LAX, DEN to PHX... all packed. I was not about to risk it.
Sorry you were not able to make your commute. As a side note, did you try going PHX-LAS-FAT? I know Skywest runs LAS-FAT and those flights are generally not too full. US Air must run that route too. And PHX-LAS has tons of service. |

Yes it will get worse. Imagine how it'll be after the summer peak season ends and then the schedule reductions kick in. Its gonna be ugly for commuters :(

Cracks me up (not literally) that all of the airlines are filling their planes and cannot turn a profit..
