This has been a very interesting thread. The Alembic family is, really that, a family. There are disagreements, arguments, and even insults. But in the end; everyone seems to come together in peace. I am new to this family, but I truly feel the love. I wish the world could be more like this: tolerant, understanding, respectful, and forgiving. Juggernaught were you really ever planning a trip? Or did you just start this thread to generate some lively discussion? You succeeded with the latter. By the way, one individual can make or break your travel plans. Anyone with any authority perceived or real can effectively alter your flight plans. I have experienced this first hand. However, Frontier Airlines gets a good report card from Perseus, LLC their DIP: We are impressed by Frontier's excellent employees and friendly customer service, as well as the numerous product characteristics that distinguish Frontier from its competitors. Industry data supports our conclusion that when given a choice, the majority of coach travelers prefer Frontier over the competitive options, Brian Leitch, Senior Managing Director of Perseus. With that said, maybe they will go out of their way to accommodate their customers. I know that this unsolicited information, maybe someone will find it helpful.
Peace to you all
