Me too. I would even be willing to pay a few bucks extra for a window seat if need be. I've never been able to figure out the advantage of a aisle seat. Sure, they have the advantage of an easier exit to the toilet. Some advantage that is though, when I have to climb over them to answer natures call.

I book Continental almost exclusively (Houston is a Continental hub). I always use Continental's site for the best pricing. I never use those "bargain sites". Continental is usually cheap-the "bargain sites" add a little so they can make something.

What I want to know is:

why is it that Southwest and AirTran can seem to make a profit in the US airline industry, but nobody else can?
