[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]so they really want to stop serving families all together? aren't they the ones who banned strollers over 20lbs from gate checking?

[b]I didn't know business travelers gave them more profit than families... [/b][/quote]

Huh?  I never even understood families boarding first when the seats are assigned.  With my 4 kids we always tend to wait until the last mintue since the less time on the plane is a bonus in our book.[/quote]

 I love extra time to let them get out their restlessness in the terminal before getting confined. Also, we like to have everyone use the bathroom in the terminal at the last minute (so we can avoid having to go often on the plane... Nothing like everyone needing to use the bathroom when the seatbelt sign is on.) Just don't carry so much darn luggage, and you'll be fine. Isn't that the reason people like boarding early, so they can hog the overhead luggage spots? There ought to be one assigned to each seat, and anything over gets stowed underneath. Better yet, airlines should charge the same for carry-on suitcases that they do for checked. Things would be more civilized. (we pay for it anyway, in the ticket prices)[/quote]
