Has anyone used this airline?

They are cheaper going one way than South West for trip to California (actually its Multi-city)

Thanks Cheryl

We flew this last year. I was really leary for a few reasons. I am a larger person and worried since this was not a major airline that I would not fit. I fit just the same. The flight was smooth, on time and no connections! We are watching for prices this year to drop a little because that is our preference again. Every thing was fine. Very clean plane. Go for it!

:) I have flown them twice out of Milwaukee to Vegas and St. Pete. Both times they were fine. They were really great with the kids when we flew them to St. Pete. I wouldn't hesitate to fly them.

We have flown them several times and didn't have a problem. They are based out of Minneapolis and they were a large charter/tour operation for at least 10 years before they switched to being a scheduled airline (I think about one year ago). The last time we flew, it was on a brand new airplane.
The only thing I would complain about was the food; each time we've flown we've had a strange sort of english muffin-y thing with cheese and pepperoni. We didn't eat it and saw a lot of them thrown away. The second time we flew, we brought some food on.
Here's a link to Sun Country. (http://www.suncountry.com/)

We have flown them quite a bit from Detroit to Minneapolis (SueM in MN--my husband is from Blaine).

We have never had a problem, their pricing is always much more competitive than Northworst--oh, I mean Northwest-and we like that they don't use the main terminal so it isn't bad flying during the holiday season.

Sun Country is awesome. Being from MN I happily fly them when I can instead of NWA. Flew on the new planes just in May - very nice - all leather seats. I fly them whenever possible.
