Cheapest not named spirit. With the extra fees, spirit ends up costing just as much as the other airlines.

Have miles with United but use them with Alliance partner Lufthansa when flying to Europe. Service is just so much better.

Delta bc its HC is here in Atlanta and I get sky miles from my AE card and I fly to Europe annually so KLM partnership is ideal.

I like Jet Blue but I fly on Southwest because it goes to family and friend's areas.
Flying is a royal PITA. Last time I flew, I had to sit by some of the stinkiest people. WTF. It was like a fricken cattle car. Take a bath and wash your clothes before you fly. Young people these days!

American. Started when I was doing my international runs, One World Alliance, was useful. Since then, I just stayed because of miles and AA credit card...and I can get anywhere with them.

If I had the choice, Delta. But I fly United because I’m next to a United airport.

American b/c DFW is their hub.

Would prefer Virgin for everything though.

If you fly at least once a month that's a lot.

Southwest if they are cheapest because bags fly free and I don't have to pay extra for certain seats.

United because of work.

All others are the same to me. Delta has never been on time for me so I avoid them. But if it's not Southwest I usually just got with the best price or times that work for me.

I usually do Delta because the Comfort+ extra leg room is worth every.single.penny when you're 6'2. The free drinks are good too.

Domestic- Delta

Out of ATL you can go anywhere non-stop with multiple departures and return options.


International- British Airways or Etihad

They blow the US airlines away in quality and service.

180 flight segments last year. Flew:
168 Delta
4 American
4 Southwest 2 KLM
2 United

Service is great as a diamond. More importantly they are reliable.

The cheapest one. If times are similar and Delta is within 50 bucks or so I'll go with Delta just because I have the credit card that gives priority boarding and a free checked bag

Southwest because I have to change schedules and flights all the time and it doesn’t cost a fee.

I’m sorry, I’m afraid I don’t understand the question.
