Anyone go to the WIA event this weekend in Dallas? How long were the lines for SWA compared to DL/UA/AA?

I've never been to a job fair before but after reading a ton on here about them it went as advertised for the most part. If you had a fast pass the wait was usually 15-30 min at most. The first day United got backed up and there was a standing line that took about an hour to get through but I think they got that fixed later. I waited 15 min for JetBlue, 1 hour for United and 20 min for Delta. Those were my fast passes. Based on what I saw, SWA may have been about 15 min also. I also met with American after they verified my app was on file that was only supposed to be a 5 min meeting turned into a 20 minute discussion with no wait to do that.
WAI seemed to have something with the fast pass system. You could also go to the booths in the exhibit hall and meet with anyone there. You never knew who was going to be there. I met with 1 CP, and 2 HR folks at different airlines. All told, this was a very good experience for me and even if nothing job wise comes from it I was able to reconnect with lots of people I hadn't seen in a long time. I will be attending again, and probably after I have a job. The parties at night were pretty good from my understanding but I needed to keep a clean mind to stay focused for the day events.
