The seats are assigned. People have been standing in line for 15 minutes now. Why on earth would anyone want to stand there, when they could just sit and wait until the line clears?

I understand wanting to get off a plane ASAP, but boarding? You just end up sitting on the plane, waiting for everyone else to get on.

    This is why I won’t fly Southwest unless I have no other choice. Nice planes and otherwise lovely flight experience; shame about the seat policy. Every time I’ve tried, it’s a confused mess of pushy or perplexed people in line, and I end up completely annoyed before takeoff.

    On the flip side, it’s free birth control. 😋

    I’d rather sit and knit until my group is called and stroll up without rushing as I know exactly where I’m sitting. I watch people stress. SMH

      Yeah, it wasn’t so bad except for the boarding. But I’m with you. I don’t want to rush to be crammed into a can of sardines any longer than I have to be.
