I meant to post this the other day because I know bitching about airlines is a favorite Orangebloods pastime.
Here are the best and worst US airlines based on the Wall Street Journal's annual report card.
I don't fly Alaska Airlines very much because I live in DC. But I do fly Delta all of the time and I rarely have any problems. I've been very impressed with Delta over the past couple of years.
I used to fly Southwest all of the time but the days of them being cheaper than everyone else are long gone and I don't like the cattle call seating process.
And I don't think anyone is surprised to see American at the bottom of the list.
Related to this...JetBlue just became the first airline to offer free wifi in every seat. The Fly-Fi service includes streaming video curated by Amazon and 36 channels of DIRECTV. Also free wifi at its terminals at DCA, JFK, LAX and many other airports.
Also...Flightstats.com released its list of the best and worst international carriers for ontime departures and landings.
