I liked Airline at first. But after a few episodes I realized something -- because of its unique boarding standards, WN is basically sending the message: "Get drunk, we'll bump you first. In fact, we'll use those of you that drink out there as an oversale buffer. Drunker you get, less likely we'll have to pay out for an oversale."

(in the gate area..[yet they were not flying themselves] and then they got assistance from a gate agent and she checked to see if MM was flying.. isn't that illegal? then on another episode a boyfriend trying to find out if his girlfriend was on a certain flight they told him they couldn't release that info! all this occurred at LAX ==================================================== Texas2SF@xxxxxxx writes: No, When I was trained for airline reservations with TI (Texas International), BN (Braniff), FL (the original Frontier) or MC (MuseAir), all of these, trained us to NEVER give out private confidential information to anyone! But, this was back when airlines actually trained their REZ agents, I mean at TI in 1977, we had a month long training class at the AA Training Academy at DFW. Of course, I excelled at reading the OAG and routings, being the airline geek that I am! LOL. BTW, the Airline (WN) series on A&E is for sale now, well, hell, let me go get drunk and buy that, LOL, have you noticed that the producers are stuck on drunk psgrs being declined boarding! In my experience, I have watched EA continue to serve the obnoxious drunk seating next to me, even when I got up and inquired as to why? I've never seen a drunk psgr declined boarding, have you? This show is fun for me to watch, but it doesn't really make WN look so great! LOL. Bill in San Francisco (SFO) Do you photograph airlines & airports, do you watch planes land & takeoff? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AirlineGeek --------------------------------- Yahoo!
