Re: Reno Air Races End in Tragedy

I don't understand how some of you are so eager to ban any sort of activities that people are freely choosing to do with all the risks involved. It's insane.

Re: JetBlue/Spirit Merger Discussion - 2023

I fly Spirit often and I really do enjoy the experience. (unlike Frontier) On top of convenient frequencies, the big seat in the front is super cheap and comfortable. It's a great way to travel. For everyone complaining about their booking process I don't know what more you guys want? It's all black...

This event was an accident, but definitely not accidental shoot down. Point of departure was Tehran, only miles away. No excuses there. Had it crossed into the country it would be a different story.

Re: Southwest's (WN) Impact on Intra-Hawaii Fares

The 737 should be fine for interisland but is a horrible, uncofortable aircraft IMO for a 4 + hour flight from the mainland. I will take a widebody aircraft every time I can. You're perfectly welcome to make the choices that work best for you, but I would choose a 737 any day over the 10-across 777...
