(10,023 posts)SWA made a big deal about us being able to fly on a brand new plane! A few of us in line joked we hoped we would not be the "last" to fly on it...little did we know the problems.
Aside from the lighting and fact that the seat configuration made my halfway down the plane aisle have no usable window for seeing out, it was not that different of an experience. Still no USB outlets, etc.
I would fly on it again...but I would not want to be on the first (or the last) flight.

I mean, their literal existences as entities are at stake here.
