I don't get why frontier employees hate WN.

SWA has never gone back on promises before, I don't see why they would start now.

They are still taking orders on 737's, in talks with Boeing about 783's, and have the friendliest crew members, pilots, of any airline I know. They also pay more than any other US airline.

But Frontier is Denver's home town airline. The underdog, the little airline that could. They ARE profitable, and were setting up to leave ch. 11 (they never would have entered if their creditors haden't screwed them over). They took pride in their culture (does Southwest have a fun livery that gets people talking? IFE? NO!!). They too had a TV show a while ago (it was a reality show about a group of Fronter FA trainees). They are setting up to expand. The airline's future was very bright.

How would you feel if your pride and joy, the airline that you worked hard to make great, all of a sudden got taken over by some national carrier? Not too good.

N922WN, N912WN, N334SW, N713SW, N715SW.


WN started in 1971, it is not a national carrier, those other airlines are crap and tried to get WN when it was starting up.

Also, I've been on frontier before, the FA's were grouchy to everyone, something that has never happened to me or my family on any WN flight.

If anything they'd say that they're sad to hear what happened to those laid off. WN employees are nice, too!

Yea, anybody would say that...

I flew Frontier and Southwest both rather recently. Those Airbuses are a of a lot more comfortable than those 737s.

But if southwest gets those airbuses then you will be just as confortable, and what about the livery?

Plain Grey with Green Engines with some random picture of an animal? How fun is that? Its not like your flying to a log cabin in canada and i wouldnt really think seeing a penguin in LA, its not that enjoyable..

Point is "Have you seen the SW livery?" Way more colorful+Enjoyable,

And southwest was so nice that they reserved a whole section of an aircraft for me and my family,..Thats what i call service..

IMO

Not to mention that those with disabilities are boarded beforehand, so you don't have to stump over people when you're boarding.

Welcome to America, this is a perfect example of capitalizm and the American Dream at work. Deal with it.

[fredrick_thy_grt]

Tell me, do any of the SW planes talk? Nope.

Has a SW commercial won a Grammy? Nope.

Does SW do anything for the cities they fly into? Nope.

Frontier does, they are an all around better airline in the end. They don't load you on the plane like a heard of cattle fighting for a seat. They actually have something besides peanuts, and they have Direct TV.



BTW, your attitude towards F9 may be the reason F9 doesn't like you, if I was a F9 FA I would be grumpy to you too.

SW is "the spoiled little brat" in the industry IMO.

I have not seen a good thing come from that airline, they start service on a route and rape the out of it. Its pathetic.

So, stick that in your cramped box 737 and suck it  


@AirTotal: The livery is very fun, no two planes are the same. Its like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get next SW has hundreds of 737 painted in the same ugly blue or colored brown. IDK, you pick, brown or a different animal every flight...

Well guess what,SWA will own Frontier and theres nothing you can do about it,HA!

[Alaska_MD-83]

That doesn't look Half Bad.

Frankly, I would rather see new Airbuses flying out of KBUR then those noisy old 733s.

[TheBigTurkey]

They will be selling the Scarebus's and buying more 737's.
