mtchg Posted April 19, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 19, 2005 ......though they are going through a reorganization bankruptcy they are going to be there when you need them, and because of their past problems they are trying harder in the service department.

dougp26364 Posted April 19, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 19, 2005 United or Continental have provided us with the best service over the last couple of years. Delta is all right but they seem to have employee attitude issues everytime we fly them. Perhaps they just don't like us? USAir is most at risk for liquidation and I'd be leary of using them at any price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothin' But Sun Posted April 20, 2005 Author #6 Share Posted April 20, 2005 You got something against Southwest? ;)Southwest did not come up on the sights I was looking under for flights. Flying out of Toronto or Detroit and Detroit is cheaper. Does Southwest depart from those airports? Hey I do watch them on "Airline". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonaCK Posted April 20, 2005 #7 Share Posted April 20, 2005 You should check them on their own website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have gone Northwest or Delta out of Detroit to Miami many times. The prices were always the lowest.....most likely because Detroit is a Northwest hub........which is nice because you can get direct flights.

AKathy Posted April 20, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 20, 2005 If you're booked with Northwest and the price drops, call them and they will give you a voucher for the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that Southwest serves north of the border. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael If you look up a few posts he stated he could fly out of Toronto or Detroit. Yes, Southwest does fly out of Detroit but you have to check their website directly. Spirit is another one you might check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtchg Posted April 20, 2005 #12 Share Posted April 20, 2005 ,...then saying United "is not going anywhere' sounds incongruent. However, I have a couple of friends that work for United/Denver, and probably BECAUSE United is working out a debt reorganization, they assure me the company is not in danger of folding unlike some others. Southwest (one of the few NOT having financial problems) is fine, but like the previous poster said, you must go to their website for info..and I was suprised on a couple of occasions that they did NOT offer the lowest price for the route in question.

SueW Posted April 20, 2005 #13 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Their schedule only goes until September. They will only post fares 5 months out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
World Traveler 81 Posted April 20, 2005 #14 Share Posted April 20, 2005 I would definitely book with United. Their service has definitely improved over the past couple of years and for the most part, my recent flights have been on-time. I think bankruptcy was a reality check for them.

hdawson Posted April 20, 2005 #15 Share Posted April 20, 2005 The top three domestic airlines rated for service for 2004 were, JetBlue, AirTran and Southwest, in that order. I don't know if JetBlue serves Detroit area yet. I think all three open their reservations at 5 or 6 months out and should be accessed on their own websites. Further, I think All three airlines still allow checked bags weighing up to 70 pounds while the legacy airlines have reduced the weight to 50 pounds. There is no way I would rely on USAir after June of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanafan Posted April 20, 2005 #16 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Did I see it correctly that USAir merged with American West today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdawson Posted April 21, 2005 #17 Share Posted April 21, 2005 In advanced talks as per USAir CEO. Both are loosing money. Doesn't make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
