Angry Why So Mean & Serious?

My, oh my. I haven't flown Frontier since 2005 when Frontier rescued me and my family from Hurricane Wilma in Mexico (but that's another story).

So, I was sort of looking forward to flying SEA-DEN-MSP a couple of weeks ago during my return home from a business trip. Being a PM on DL, I am used to flying FC for free, great seat selection, etc. But, that's okay when I get to save about $350.00 on airfare.

When I arrived at my gate in SEA, I was almost stupefied by how militant, rigid, unfriendly and rude the GA's were when they boarded our flight. They took delight in making PAX miserable during the boarding process and demonstrated NO flexibility what so ever when it came to boarding order, carry on size, etc. But wait, it gets better.

I get to DEN, deplane, grab a quick bite to eat and then go to my connecting flight to MSP. The boarding process at the Gate was a little (emphasis on a *** little) less rigid. But once on board... my, oh my... two of the FA's were rude and obssessed with only allowing each PAX one bag in the overhead... AND ONLY ONE BAG. Ok... in making this their sole priority during the boarding process, they totally ignored and shirked their other duties in seeing that PAX other needs were taken care of. Case in point, the PAX next to me was in need of some aspirin and had no opportunity to even ask for some aspirin until we were up in the air and the main service began.

Common Frontier... lighten up!
