[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to fly one way home from the west coast to Florida - so 4.5 hours.  There are three airlines that do the route nonstop - spirit, frontier and southwest.  This is for work, so cost is no issue, and I can upgrade to "business" or whatever big seats they may possible offer. And I don't care about fees either. My biggest concern is just having to spend 5 hours on a terrible, uncomfortable plane where there's no true business class.

My choices are Frontier redeye.  Or Spirit or Southwest flight the next day, leaving late afternoon. I have zero desire to spend an extra day in the destination; I just want to get home early. So if the redeye the night before were on any normal airline with business class, I'd do that in a heart beat to just get home a day early.

Does anyone have any insight on whether any of these three airlines have marginally more comfortable flying experiences (assuming you get the largest seats)?  [/quote]

If work is paying, why are these the only choices? Go with Delta, AA, or if you must, United.[/quote]

No direct flights. I'm not going to add a layover somewhere just to avoid these three airlines! That's totally illogical. [/quote]

I think in this scenario — wanting to get the f out of town — a connecting flight on a regular airline is the way to go. Because frontier and spirit cancel flights all the time, and you do not want to stay another day. Especially bc price is not concern, fly business on a regular airline so you aren’t stranded for three days in tallahassee when you just want to get home to boise. Sometimes a layover is worth it.[/quote]
