RE: British Airways Joins the Budget Airlines in Locking Seats. Should It Stop There?

in #travel7 years ago

Noooooo! Frontier Airline is the devil. We got tickets once - super awesome deal, bundled with Luxor hotel in Vegas, super cheap. Well... as you pointed out - you pay for everything. Do you want a carry on with you - you pay. Do you want to sit with the person you are traveling? Pay. Do you want to have extra 4 inches of space. Pay. If you are above 5 feet - you will be uncomfortable flying. Because you will not fit into your seat. The seats are also plastic. Then they lure you into thinking they're an amazing airline by saying that you have a voucher for free upgrades because your flight was delayed by like an hour. Ok. So you pay for upgrades, sit closer to the front with more room. WELL... then you discover that one of the worst parts of Frontier is not even the lack of room or ability to bring a bag - it's the people. Not the poor people with a bunch of kids who I was expecting to make noise and cause annoyance. It's the bros who brought their own booze. It's the people who think they are too good to fly Frontier and will loudly talk about it for HOURS. Loudly. You will wish for sweet mercy of death. Also pilots are ... interesting. And will have to try a landing at least twice. They will be in a hurry so you will like vomiting even though you never get motion sickness. So... Frontier. I hope the trend doesn't spread... Southwest all the way :-)
