Scott Williams 🐧<p>None of the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Southwest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Southwest</span></a> flights I flew on this week were full. Some of them were more than half empty. It seems the changes in boarding and baggage policy are already having an effect. I hope Southwest gets the message, but so far it seems that those switching are wise to do so. Might as well start earning points with another airline now.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/airlines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>airlines</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/SouthwestAirlines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SouthwestAirlines</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/flying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flying</span></a></p>

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>That flight I was hoping would stay cheap managed to stay. We didn't get the lowest fare I had seen (&lt;$500) but snagged a $690 one way Westjet ticket, Nanaimo to Barcelona; cancellable/changeable and includes seats, checked bag, and carry-on. Incredible value.</p><p>It's also the lowest CO2 hit by air from Western Canada.</p><p>Hardware: (Canadian made) Dash 8 Turboprop from Nanaimo to Calgary (93kg pp) and B787 to Barcelona (425kg pp).</p><p>There are no direct flights to Spain west of Calgary. I'm frankly shocked AC or WS don't have a B777 or B787 in the summer and winter from Vancouver to Barcelona… it would fill! Perhaps its capacity on the Barcelona side that is full up.</p><p>I love the Dash 8. A little noisy compared to a standard jet, but I really like the feel of smaller aircraft. And they generally fly lower, so the views over the rockies especially are fantastic.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Flying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Flying</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Carbon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Carbon</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/CO2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CO2</span></a></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Canada_Dash_8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havil</span><span class="invisible">land_Canada_Dash_8</span></a></p>
