Southwest first-timer - not impressed

[BostonTink85]

Song, which is owned by Delta, has a tv in the back of every seat with tons of television channels (FoxNews, MSNBC, E!, A&E, Food Net., etc.) and they also have free music (tons of awesome selections), free trivia games, and movies that you can rent for $5. Also they are pretty cheap (not as much as SW but still a good deal. For us, going from Boston to Orlando it was $79 each way.

Also the crews were great. Very friendly and personable; can't compare them to SW (have never flown with them) but IMO they were great!

I don't know how far Newark is for you but Jet Blue will be flying out of there starting in Oct.

I'll never fly SWA. They would make me buy two seats, so it wouldn't be any savings anyway.

My first choice is American. I like airlines that treat me like a human being.

BTW, I flew from Austin to Vegas and they showed a movie.
