The amazing thing to me was the number of passengers on the Frontier flight. With load factors like that, I’ll need to see if the stock is a buy.
I have a premium Delta card (platinum) and every damn thing costs extra. Want to earn miles? Extra $$ Don't want a middle seat? Extra $$ Want to make changes? Extra $$ I've been with them for years, but I am seriously considering NOT renewing when the card is up.
They don't do this (arguably) because they are @$$holes, they do it because they know they can fill damn near every seat.
