IMHO, that's more like first cousins' three eyed offspring.
My Frontier experiences have been shoved in tighter than a sardine with a bunch of tourists, ...every....single.....flight. There isn't enough money in this world to make me fly with oversized tourists on the right and left of me.
One really bad experience was right after 9/11 when the gate agent and the supervisor were walked off by Phoenix Police when the GA because verbally abusive (plenty of four letter words at top volume) to several customers (me included) when they decided to close the door early even though the security lines were at record length. I'll now admit to mumbling to one of the officers that there probably would be a reward if his sidearm accidentally went off and took out the GA...
The Phoenix local TV news, Channel 12 ran part of the exchange under a general story of "nerves frayed at Sky Harbor" which was a joke. I left the Rocky Mountain High airline and went to Terminal 2 to get out on UAL, albeit late. All of their employees were friendly and professional. And not one of them caused me to wonder if they were on Meth.....
My Southwest experiences have been better than that.
