i know people say that SW sucks and they don't have assigned seats blah blah blah.... but 90% of my flights are 45 mins to 1 hr 15 mins.... i really don't care about a second rate airline if i spend most of my time on one hour puddle hoppers and i save a lot of money. i mean, what the hell is the point of paying for something more posh when you take off, level out, have 7 mins in the air to take your seatbelt off and go pee, and then you have to be back in your seat with your seatbelt on to start your descent?
You're right, for a shorter flight the frills don't matter as much.
