I also really enjoy flying DL ex-OAK, but the frequencies and nonstop destinations are pretty limited.
IMHO WN boarding is the least cattle-call like boarding these days. No gate lice. And are WN flights more full than their competitors to the point that their competitors aren't flying full planes these days?
