I don’t miss dealing with airlines, tsa, or the herds of cattle in the airports at all. It’s pretty much like being treated like stock. My Doc is going away from Fee for Service... watched his Zoom presentation last night on his new "Concierge Service" .Gov (healthcare for all) as well as the fees that he is allowed to be paid... had made him shorten office visits down to about 4-5 minutes... just so he could pay his staff and keep the office open. His new "Concierge Service" will be an annual $1,500 ($2,500 for a couple). A hard $$$ pill to swallow, but I think we are going to move on it. The way politicians have fugged up health care... well the cattle and livestock quote above kinda convinced me. Sorry for the digression... back to air travel now... and how politicians have deliberately fugged that up as well. What does "Concierge Service" mean... 30 minute office visits (mininum), Executive physicals, CT scans/screenings (et al)... immediate same day appointments... 24/7/365 phone access... "Quarterbacking" any serious hospital visits... yada yada. Are you still going to this fugking idiot? Yes... The medical field is becoming a real train wreck... I believe the extra attention will be beneficial. AND the cost is a Tax write off... so kinda works out some. Example: My wife set an appointment with her "Regular" doctor... it was a 2.5 month wait. Under this plan... 2 PM same day. If you are satisfied... I am glad for you. I am not satisfied with the current Pay For Service arrangement here. Asked today... "How many in this program?" The cut off number is 200. So basically, 50 weeks in a year and 4 patients per week = 200. Factor in multiple visits per year (assume 4)... that is 800 patient visits. Typical years is 2,080 hours of work... kinda works out to a lot of patient time as needed. I expect to see "Concierge Services" become VERY TYPICAL. I am an architect... you can hire me for your house... or you can buy plans on-line for $200... Choice is yours. many people do not give a fugg if the bathroom is in the kitchen... some do. .
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Besides, I live near Detroit. They are the most convenient, by far. I have 230K FF miles on them. My wife is Diamond and has 1.7M FF miles.

Everybody hates ATL but DTW is always voted one of the best US airports.

I almost never fly anything but SWA. I can zip into Love Field, drop off my wife and kid with the luggage, park, walk back to the counter and check in with them, and be through security in a half hour to forty five minutes.

Everybody hates ATL but DTW is always voted one of the best US airports. The only issue I have with ATL is summertime when storms disrupt the afternoon flights. I only make connections through there so I have no clue what it’s like to go through security or try to get to that airport .

Yeah, it sucks, but it sucks less than American, United, Southwest, Frontier, Spirit or anyone else with close to a full network.

I don't have a problem with Delta, they are pretty good at being on time. In the last 8 years I only had one flight delay that caused me to miss my connection due to mechanical issues. The few others were due to circumstances out of their control.

You're just saying that because they handed out prayer cards with your meals for 30 years.
