Besides reporting that carryon bags are up to $50 at the airport (they are actually as much as $100) and that a ticket on us nonstop from OAK-PDX on us is much cheaper than Delta's nonstop (neither us nor Delta fly nonstop from OAK to PDX), a very nicely written and spot on article.

But most of the comments by people, as most comments are, were pretty ignorant.
Plus, I flew DFW-ATL-FLL, my seats reclined, the FAs were really nice (and attractive) and the headrest was cool.

Then spend the extra couple C -notes and fly Delta. It is what it is. Save the $, or don't. It's your choice. Just go troll your own airline board, or S.T.F.U.

THIS HAS BEEN A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.

And what exactly can the NK pilots do about it? So why bring it up? What are you? 25? When will you grow up and realize that most of us are happy to even have a job? The industry is full of pilots that are kicked around and beaten to death, and you have the nerve to start this "my airline is better than yours" bs. Like you have anything to do with that.

Or should I start to give you c... too about stuff you have no control over? Like:

Why are you working for a largely foreign owned carrier?
Especially one that is owned by an extremely anti labor person like Sir yellow teeth Benson?
But if you have than why are you not unionized still?
Why are you doing the same job we are with 20% less pilots?
... and on and on

Seriously dude what is it with you? You keep coming here making yourself look like an idiot over and over.

Haha! I flew with home quite a few times at pinnacle, pretty sure he's right around 28. The funny thing is that he's not vocal at all in person!!! Quiet as can be.

I understand fees and extras for baggge, food, boarding passes, equipment, etc.

But wth is an unintended consequences fee? It's a BS fee and you know it. So the entire fare has to be published including tax, so there's somehow a consequence fee to see that entire published fare? Like I said, BS.
