i flew with them and didnt have all that great of an experience either. to make a long story short
1. flight attendant wouldnt let my mom use the bathroom because she (the FA) was pouring ice into the toilet when in fact she let a white lady do so beforehand. we are asian
2. i got clearance from the captain to take a pic of the cockpit. i step into the doorway. the same FA grabs me by the arm and pulls me back and tells me i cant take a pic for "security purposes." i told her the captain gave me permission, she didnt care. plane was already empty and turned off.

so thats my 2 cents. wrote a complain letter to the usair office and got a $50 for my next flight. i aint flying with them ever again. threw that $50 into the recycle bin.

fly southwest airlines if you are traveling within the USA. there is no comparison.
I had a better experience than yours. The only problem was that they changed my itinerary without them calling me and I got mad with them over the phone after that and I had a hard time checking in after that. The flights I took were good. Nice FA's and flight crew. I got a chance to get cockpit shots and some cabin shots without intervention from the FA's(They said that they had to ask the captain first), and one flight on an Embraer 175 had a problem with the Air conditioning, otherwise my experience is ok. There was one problem with a FA from another passenger but the other one referred the couple to the captain. It depends on the flight attendan't mood, I try to get them on their good side.

It was ok but just little problems and issues with two aircraft.
