Plane is fun as you load and unload fast, seat comfort is OK for flights less than an hour/hour and a half (two hours is a bit much in this plane). Skycheck is Ok (makes up for lack of overhead bin space)
I guess it all comes down to one's definition of fun. I find nothing fun about ckin, security, departure areas, security again (sometimes), boarding, sitting on a plane (any plane), following way too many rules, having far too many rules being told to you, then getting off at the other end.
Being on a cramped Dash 8 or CRJ just makes it worse.
I am one of the few people who fails to see the fun in travel. I thoroughly enjoy most destinations, but the getting there I can do without.
Whenever they invest the "beam me up Scotty", I will be one of the first customers
