My friend's flight was supposed to get in at 9PM! It keeps getting delayed!! Same thing happened to me last 2x I took this airline.

They have been having serious issues the last couple of years. Nationally I only fly United (and they aren't really that great); Internationally I try to stick with Lufthansa.

It may not be the airline's fault. I think NY airspace is pretty congested and delays are pretty common for all carriers there.

I have flown JetBlue before and it was by far the best domestic experience I've had. The TV helps the time go by and the larger seat pitches are very nice. Hawaiian has better food but you can't have everything :D

I'd have to agree. The last time I did fly JetBlue was back in 2004 though. It was a direct flight from Long Beach, CA to JFK. I loved it.

Overall the airports all over have been reporting more delays than the year's past.

Phoenix area is now one of the top airports for late flights - arriving and departing.

Actually, it was JFK. Too many incoming international flights, apparently. We had an awesome weekend though, and I am happy my liver is functioning normally again :D.

I have taken just about every domestic airline (except for Airtran, I think). They all seem to be pretty subpar to me. Southwest is probably my favorite, but really only because of cost. Service-wise, I don't notice much of a difference. We do have a good airline in Kansas City that has amazing service (Midwest Airlines), but they are also mondo expensive.

Because my girlfriend hails from an Amtrak community, and KC has a really great train station, I have been using Amtrak recently. I love Amtrak, but if you wanna talk about delays they have the market cornered (1 hour late is early for Amtrak, 6 hours late is "delayed"). Still, the scenery is much better than when you fly.
