Furloughed Again?!

I don't know if I would do that, but the rest of the trip would be pretty darned quiet. [emoji35]

I'd do the exact same thing as e6bpilot... "Everything is ready, captain... now I'll go get my meal." If we're late, we're late...

Anyone own a popsleather jacket rather than the perrone?

You will be at the long end of the table with no ashtray or cigarette!

Nah man... he is the type that would push ten minutes early with a commuter stranded on the jetway

I am guessing that most of his conversation topics while airborne started with "I" and "me".

This.

It is hard enough to manage your food with the quick turns and no meals on board. This is just BS.
Flag tie?

This is a silly question but I start a trip Saturday and I am going to be flying through Tuesday night. If the DB says yes to me and calls and I am flying do they leave a Voicemail? I have to imagine people have missed the call before

I'm just "fooling" with you....of course they'll leave a message.

Good luck!

SLC Commuter Bases

Question: What base would be easiest to commute to/from SLC with Southwest? I'm retiring military and plan on SLC to settle the family. Which base would I be able to commute to/from base to SLC on the start and end of a trip? Any? I've looked at all the bases and number of flight in and out of SLC, but I don't have insight into number of pax and open jump seats out of SLC.
Any insight is appreciated.
