Reading some of these posts and experiencing
long check in lines, the cattle drive to
get on the plane, difficulties with upgrades,
I have a idea or two about how to make the
dreaded airport processes a little bit easier.

*More check-in windows and people for the
ff programs, at least three, one for top tier, one for second, one for third. Of course there are times I get to the airport
and there's only two people working the ticket counters.

*A more organized boarding process. Yes, let those who may have trouble boarding and those
with children on first. Wait a few minutes,
then let the top tier and paid first class
then second tier then third tier ffers aboard with some pacing in boarding. Maybe wait like two minutes as each group boards.

*Redo the computers so when someone is an elite member and wants an upgrade he/she will
get it. A few times while sitting cramped in
coach I wondered how some lucky folks got into first, and how a few seats were empty.

*A row or two more of first and business class. Don't the airlines know the business
traveler group is growing? (At least it is to
me.)

Maybe my suggestions won't be popular with
most... but I had an urge to express myself.

Feel free to respond. Catman.
