The last time I flew was a long time ago. Those of you who’ve only flown since about the ‘80s or so may not believe this but….It was 1971, and my husband was a United employee. We flew standby for only the price of the tax on the ticket cross-country. We got the flight we intended to, and were upgraded to first class for a few bucks because the plane was so open. Granted I’m short, 5’2", my ankles barely reached the seat in front of me. I had no one next to me, my husband opting for the window seat across the aisle. We had rack of lamb for dinner, I had black Russians beforehand, and footies for my comfort for the entire trip — all for the price of the ticket. We were on our way to Disneyland, and obviously Neverland started early for us. Today? I’d rather be crammed into a Japanese subway with one of their cattle-pushers than fly today.
Dog – I certainly remember, but my “radius” reply was an attempt to take the “r too” string to new heights! or different heights … or different … something.And, funny back atcha

I thought Southwest didn’t board that way; instead, I thought boarding was more like a stampede.

@jreckard, on the contrary, Southwest has the most well-organized boarding process of any airline I’ve flown.
