    An Early Start

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F

    It's time for more traveling and we're going to Las Vegas! We were picked up by an Uber driver 3 minutes after we put in for the ride. They work so quickly! We decided to use a car service this time rather than have somebody drop us off at the airport since it was so early.
    This was my first time to ride in a Toyota Prius. I'm not sure what I was expecting but it felt exactly like a regular car. Being a hybrid, and running on electricity, I was would think that it would be a silent and very smooth ride. It just felt so normal though. I'm kind of disappointed.    Lue lisää

    Terminal B

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    Since there was no traffic, we made it to the airport very quickly. We haven't been to LaGuardia in a while and the construction seems to be in full swing. We made it through it all quickly, since it's so early, but I could see this being a nightmare during the rush hour traffic.Lue lisää

    Checking In

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    This is our first time flying with Southwest and my first impression leaves me less than impressed. We waited on to check in for our flight and when we got there all we did was check in using the terminal and the Southwest agent just ignored us. Not even a good morning! I think that they could do a little better with their customer service.Lue lisää

    Pulled

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    Kathy was pulled from the line and needed to have her bag rechecked because she forgot to take her tablet out of her bag. After a rescan on the x-ray machine she was good to go. While I was waiting for her, I saw some people being rechecked several times. I wonder what they were doing wrong? Fortunately, it wasn't a big deal for us. We got here very early and still have plenty of time.Lue lisää

    Big Bottom

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    With nothing else to do, we're just relaxing and people watching. Kathy noticed this woman and pointed her out to me. That's so big that it doesn't even look real. It's as if she has a pillow stuffed into her pants. The Kardashian girls can't compete with her! Hahaha!Lue lisää

    Southwest Airlines

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    Kathy was telling me that Southwest Airlines doesn't have assigned seats on their flights. I've never heard of a system like this but I don't think that I like it. I'm hoping that we can get two seats together. I always hate sitting next to strangers. Overhead baggage storage for our stuff would be great also.Lue lisää

    Ready to Board

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    Southwest Airlines has the most bizarre boarding process. People have to line up according to a letter designation and, then, the line is further split up into numbered groups. I was A50 meaning that, in the first group, I was the 50th passenger allowed to board. This is silly and causes unnecessary confusion. Why don't they just use the same boarding process that every other airline uses? I guess that there's always someone who's got to be different..Lue lisää

    We're Seated

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F

    Once you're allowed to get on the plane, your free to grab whatever seat that you want. We were lucky enough to get two seats together, plus room in the overhead bin for our bags, but I'm guessing that this could be a problem for a family traveling with children. I don't think that it's fair to make a family split up their seats. I guess that's why we never used Southwest while traveling when the kids were small.

    Snack Time

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☁️ 27 °F

    We're somewhere over Pennsylvania and that means it's snack time here on Southwest. We were given Plane Cookies, which I hope aren't too plain, and pretzels, just "because they like us". I think that I'll hold on to these for a while. I don't want to have cookies and pretzels for breakfast.Lue lisää

    So Sleepy

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ❄️ 32 °F

    Waking up so early this morning is starting to catch up with us. We're both so tired but it's always very difficult to sleep while sitting up in an airplane seat. I'm surprised that Southwest doesn't give out pillows or blankets like all the other airlines do. I could sure use a pillow right now. My neck is feeling so stiff and sore! I have an airplane pillow in my bag but it's in the overhead bin. Since I'm in the window seat, I guess that it will have to stay there. I'm not going to make every one wake up to let me get it. I suppose that I'll just have to deal with it. I'm hoping that we get to Dallas soon...Lue lisää

    Everything is Southwest

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 34 °F

    Dallas certainly seems to be Southwest country because that's the only airline I've seen at this airport. Could this be an airport designed by, and for, Southwest Airlines only? I've never heard of something like that but I suppose it's possible.
    Update - I've researched this airport and found that it's Southwest's corporate headquarters and their main operating hub, which explains why everything here seems to be exclusively Southwest.    Lue lisää

    We're in Dallas!

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 34 °F

    This is my first look at Dallas and, unfortunately, I'm not very impressed. In all fairness though, we only had time to see one small section that was, essentially, a food court like I'd find in a shopping mall. I was hoping to maybe find someplace where I could get some postcards or magnets, but no such luck.Lue lisää

    Welcome to Moe's!

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F

    After quickly looking over all the possibilities for a meal, Moe's seemed to be the best choice for us. All the rest were either too crowded or we just couldn't eat what they were selling. We decided to split a chicken quesadilla, which turned out to be pretty good, as far as airport foods go. The price was quite expensive but I suppose that's to be expected when getting food at the airport.
    I'm still feeling hungry though. I'm really looking forward to those buffets in Las Vegas!    Lue lisää

    Queued Up

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F

    Since we've done it before, we knew exactly where to line up when it was time to start boarding. I still think that it's a strange and confusing system though. At least this is the last time we have to do it though. It's going to be nice flying home on JetBlue.Lue lisää

    Shut Up, Sit Down!

    3. maaliskuuta 2019, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☁️ 34 °F

    We're back on Southwest Airlines, this time going from Dallas to Las Vegas. I was starting to think that maybe I was a bit hasty in my judgement and that Southwest wasn't so bad but, while the passengers were boarding, and finding seats, the flight attendant got on the loud speaker and said, "Everybody find a seat and sit down so we can get outta here on time!" Kathy and I were both surprised by the anger and impatience in her tone. Ordinarily, I wouldn't think much of this but for a company that's constantly crowing about how wonderful their customer service is, it's awful. That one statement knocked Southwest Airlines down to the bottom of the heap, as far as I'm concerned.Lue lisää
