Preferred Airlines

[Girlstar30]

So Southwest was my preferred airline until their awful policy changes.

I know this is subjective to where one lives, but what are your airlines of choice? I am on the hunt for a new one to be loyal to and I'm not sure if any of them offer no change fees, but that is what i miss most. Extra points if yours has that with an economical price.

With me being a super stalker im looking for an airline with flexibility for when those waitlists go thru!

For flight options and ease of flying Delta.

For saving money Breeze or Allegiant.

Anything to avoid LAX

I am about to try Breeze since they have a direct from my regional airport 4 days a week so i will use them if it is a solo trip in summer, but since they only go out once a day and not every day I cant trust them for winter.

United has a flight every hour to MCO from Newark so it is pretty risk free and if the flight gets canceled they have 20 others.

Not brand new. They have been growing though. Budget airline so be prepared to pay for seat choice, bags, drinks etc. My trip in August I paid $90 round trip into MCO

I pay about $210 but I get the top options so you sorta can pretend its 1st class .. still better than the $700 for United

I’ve flown “nicest” with them. Pretty sweet deal.

Note, I also do 2 owners lockers so I can travel with a backpack for a week. Saves on bag fees.

I need to seriously look into owners locker again do they deliver everywhere in orlando or just disney world?

They do not deliver to universal - many other hotels you can check on the site.

I am a carhart / columbia jeans and shorts guy so it works for me. Your mileage may vary.

I do the every other year AP thing so on the off year Universal comes in, but I sometimes get a week at SSR and then a single night at hard rock - get the benefits crash and go back to SSR. This was Pre Epic where Universal was a 2 day park to me.

We are driving distance to Disneyland. Our primary airline is Alaska.

Mostly fly out of Ontario, CA & San Diego. They have good non stop options. Good service and reliability. I do have the Southwest credit card and use them too. (Glad that card gives me the free checked now after those changes). Just not fan how their schedules bounce city to city patterns, that if one delay someplace, domino effects entire routes. Too many plane changes with limited non stops. My DW has the Alaska card and get the free checked with group C boarding.

I know this is subjective to where one lives

I live very near DTW, so I am on Delta more or less all the time. I've hit 1MM with them, and that gives me some lifetime perks that aren't half bad.

They are definitely not the cheapest. But they've intentionally been trying to differentiate themselves as something more than just mass transit, and they've been moderately successful at it. I'm in a place in my life where I don't mind being a little bougie when it comes to travel. For example, I get grouchy when an airport only has a Priority Pass lounge, and not a proper SkyClub.

I'm United all the way but I live near Newark and they fly to Orlando about every hour and a half so it's a good choice. I get status with them from work flights and international travel so I at least get economy plus but maybe first class on every flight. I actually like United in comparison to American.

RIP Southwest free checked bags, I am still mourning lol We fly out of SLC, so Delta will probably be our new main airline. I do enjoy them, inflight entertainment is great for the kids, just pricey 99% of the time. Breeze's hub is in Provo, so they are becoming increasingly popular here! I heard nothing but good things so we plan on trying them out for December trip!
