For how long, though? Okay, maybe joe blow who flies three times a year is willing to put up with an eight hour line, but how many of us who have to do it a few times a month are willing to put up with that?

And even Joe Blow is going to start to get pissed off. Why bother to try to fly Southwest from BWI to BDL when you have to wait in line for eight hours for a 40 minute flight? Hell, you can drive it in less time.
