Some Woman's Journal: No, seriously...MIDWEST AIRLINES!!!

They rock so much that I could spend a mere $5 more to get a direct flight, but I'm not going to! They seriously give you warm, soft chocolate chip cookies. I considered getting their credit card just so that I could hug it in my arms late at night, and also to get more flights for free. I haven't yet, but if they feed me a few more cookies, I could be convinced.

Plus, the Milwaukee airport isn't too bad. It has one huge, huge midwesterly positive going for it: it's not Detroit. And also, have I mentioned that the seats are large, plush, and have more leg room than I know what to do with?

It's funny, because Some Guy has found his low-budget airline of choice in AirTran. Apparently some people value free satellite radio more than cookies. I do not know who these people are or how they came to be.

Radio more than cookies?

Who are these people? </Seinfeld>

So doesn't he have an iPod? Because you can take your own music. I have yet to see a portable cookie making device, although I'm very close to a breakthrough in this area.

They would let me plug in my Easy-Bake oven on the plane. Bastards.

AirTran

[Iamthefallen]

I flew AirTran Miami->Atlanta the first time I came to the U.S.

I flew in a plane that I think used to be an East-German bus in the 70's. This lucky bus had found new life thanks to the magic of wings and duct tape. The pilot literally zig-zagged between thunder clouds the whole flight. While it was a cool show to look out and see a dark pillar full of lightning next to the plane, it wasn't a relaxing flight.

The zig-zagging might have been important; maybe he was zig-zagging the plane to help him stay awake after drinking too much beer?

Huh?

What's wrong with Detroit? Did you go through the older terminal? The new one (A gates) is fantastic.

AirTran?

I think they were the ones who delayed my flight at the midway point, then decided too many pieces had fallen off to let us go, so we waited for a replacement plane. No, really.
That, or there was some other carrier with Tran. There were at least two at the time.
