On Southwest Airlines new family boarding policy

[PokrLikeItsProse]

I don't know the layout of whatever planes Southwest uses, but if it were a good idea for them to have a family area, I'd suggest that it be located relatively near the lavatory, whether it be front or back.

if their children are so poorly behaved that they disturb other flyers.

Very easy to pick out the posters who don't have children.

Thanks for the grunch.

It's built into little kids. No matter how many times you beat them, they still kick seats.

I find it very funny that the OP thinks that women who frown at "boisterous" kids are lesbians.

I'll tell you a secret, OP: there's a whole world subculture called the childfree. Women and men who've decided that children are not worth the hassle. Some childfrees like kids, but don't want to be around them; some hate them with a passion and want to be around them even less. Some would call you a breeder, your kids breederspawn, and the stuff your carry with you breedercrap and tell you to do everyone a favor and drive, if you must travel.

So don't make assumptions. Being lesbian does not equal disliking kids.

If you read that post, I was talking about being in the street in Berkeley, not on a plane. I did not use the word 'boisterous'. And I know a Berkeley lesbian when I see one, thanks.

Maybe a stroller on the sidewalk is 'breederstuff' taking up too much room, I dunno.

Anyway, Berkeley is a bad example. It's the most intolerant liberal place in the U.S.

Try as we might, we cannot always prevent this from happening over five hours of flight time, so on this trip SWA had multiple unhappy passengers: Us, and those who had to sit in front of our 4 year-old.Good luck with your family-segregation-ghetto policy, Southwest. We will not fly this airline again.


Have any other posters with young'uns flown Southwest since this new policy was implemented? What did you think?

Oh, man. Boarding a plane before everyone isn't a basic civil right. It's a privilege. You guys are acting like they make you drink from your own water fountains.
