I agree the general discussion threads have degraded this forum. I used to get all of my airline news by logging into this site every day and reading over the posted topics. Now that everything gets buried I usually learn airline news from CNN or MSNBC or Fox or even freaking Buzzfeed before I read ...
Jump to postI have a question about Southwest for anyone more well-versed with Southwest than me. A group of friends is trying to book flights to Liberia, Costa Rica (LIR) in September, and it looks like Southwest stops flying there after September 5th. I didn't see anything about this route being cut or being ...
Jump to postOdd question: What is the protocol for FA's and/or medical personnel on board (Passengers who are doctors/nurses/ect) which regards to landing if they are treating someone with a medical condition?

Jump to postWe are in 2019, not 1959. Companies cannot side publicly with their employees, or they'll be flamed down by the social media "justice". Unless the airline reprimanded the employee (even if just a discussion), then it's their way to save face towards the public. It doesn’t matter their rea...
Jump to postFrom twitter is appears a plane either blew it's tires or had a front landing gear collapse? Sounds like they might be evacuating using stairs. People are saying it's a UA 757.

Jump to postHe is quite lucky that the captain did not have him removed from the flight or that another passenger did not give him a smackdown. That was also a surprise to me. The captain observed everything that was going on and once a passenger got out of his seat and threatened a flight attendant, he should...

Jump to postSo fire fighters and law enforcement were able to get on the plane, but the airline and the airport wasn't able to get the passengers off? Something just isn't adding up here. If you're able to get a cop onto and off of the plane, then there is no reason why you should be stranding passengers.
