| - Can I rate it ZERO stars?
Is there anything worse in the air? NO, but only because United is equally as bad. I'd never volunteer to fly on this airline, no matter what the fare differential is. If my company didn't make us fly this winged bus, I'd never see the inside of one of their airplanes again.
From San Antonio, US Airways and its twin misery inflicter, United fly commuter jets. They fly these miserable jets halfway across the country. They do this because they know the passenger is flying someplace where there's no real competition (aka Southwest, AirTran, or even American).
If you've ever had to sit on a commuter jet for two hours next to a toilet, in a seat that doesn't recline, behind one that DOES, after a guy drops a deuce and the toilet door doesn't stay shut, you'd say that bus pretty much sucks. The thing is, they don't have to have to put those two seats there but they do.
On top of that, the flight attendant whined that she couldn't eat her full meal upon arriving at SAT.
The good news was, the airplane had a relatively smooth flight. After landing though, the pilot hit the brakes so hard while taxiing to the terminal, it threw me (with my seat belt properly adjusted) into the seat in front of me.
Totally uncool.
EDIT: I didn't mention the astronomical fare they charged to get to Charlottesville, my final destination. I also apologize to all bus lines for comparing them with US Airways or United. Very unfair of me.
