How am I being elitist?

Is this a serious question?

you haven't lived until you have gotten a free flight to Portland.

Like if you don't want to spend 250 or whatever to go to Seattle so you spend 25k miles instead? That's not a good deal

just a factor as to why SWA isn't GREAT...it's a fine airline....that's not elitist.

Nobody here gives AF about being elitist, nor think they are. I do however like free trips to random places, so thanks SW.

Looking for a Delta seat for a great value, but don’t mind where you sit? Basic Economy might be the right choice for you. You’ll still enjoy the same Main Cabin experience at a lower cost, in exchange for fewer options like receiving your seat assignment after check in. Explore the details to see if Basic Economy fits your needs.

They're just the best out of a bunch of crap is all.

Meh...no premium class, no reserved seats (sometimes good, sometimes bad), no lounges, very little international, not low priced....lots of directs out of KC is about their only saving grace...and I do like being able to get credit for cancelled flights.

Make an argument for your fav.

i lounge thanks to my CSR and how often do you really lounge anyway, enough to factor into your airline decision, i see.
the biggest time i would guess you'd be lounging is for an international and swa wouldn't be in consideration anyway, or maybe a big layover, which swa doesn't have.

All entertainment is free on delta,  and they have a huge movie selection. SW has the reality tv market covered tho

Again, if you rubes would just download your cable providers app, non of this is an issue. I've already seen every movie of all time too, so that's not doing it for me. Mocat, just call SW loving ppl poors/rednecks and get it over with already.

This is a good point. I don't have compelling arguments for any of them. AA is prob my current fav as they have the 2nd most airlift out of kci and can take me across the pond. Their rewards program just keeps getting worse though.  I'd love if Alaska made big inroads into kci.

Because it takes two seconds to do and you're bitching about some free tv that sw provides, when many ppl have already cut the cord.

You bitch over the littlest things sometimes. Have an elitist attitude and i'm not the only one who's called it out. Like these airlines owe you all the free tv, movies, wifi, etc. in the land. Just seems like you're reaching here and want to let everyone know what elite airlines you've flown and that SW is for peasants.
