Oh shit, this actually started days ago. I didn't even know that....
I am mainly pissed because I HAD A WINDOW SEAT and they bumped me when I went to check in from it and now want to make me pay more for it. PISSED. Funny thing is that I still apparently have a window seat for my return flight on Tuesday. I would probably be a lot worse if I paid for the actual flight. But work did. I forked over the $14. Worth it not to sit in the middle, lol. I just will never book this airline on my own, that's for sure.

Yeah it's free if there any open and you check in at the counter. But their hope is they are all taken by check-in time.

Nope. Haven't seen that law. Spirit Air charges to pick a seat also. Along with charging you if you don't print your boarding pass online. Surprised they don't charge for breathing.

lol at that picture haha...
so most airlines and other businesses wants you to do as much as you can by yourself, thus minimizing the need for actual human beings being employed to save on payroll, so if i get this right, AA wants us to pay extra for them to save on giving shifts to their unionized fleet of old dinosaur miserable employees?
BRILLIANT!!!!!
cant believe i didn't see this. I'll be we'll see this in Bloomberg Business week next
