Wait, are the luxury hot pockets not really a luxury? Based in HNL and every flight back to mainland is a hassle, Hawaiian has two directs I fly. I donโ€™t mind southwest for sub 3 hour flights but cross ocean, I want to know my seat assignment and have the extra leg room for my tall-self. Letโ€™s see how this shakes out.

๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜… ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜… ๐Ÿ˜… ๐Ÿคฃ Actually lold at this. Right?

And also, 100%. I would never fly SW on anything other than interisland.

I fly Alaska and only Alaska if I'm leaving the island. Too much bad blood with Delta, and the wifi is better/ more consistent.

I feel you. I fly whatever gets me there direct. Iโ€™m just a transplant for a term and have Executive Platinum on American but man, red eyes dont work for my business travel. Let me arrive early AM for a business meeting? Nope, thatโ€™s means Iโ€™m spending an extra day to fly in early and hoping whatever Marriot Iโ€™m staying in will let me check in early. Joys of business travel.

Safe travels!
