Hey, when the federal taxes expired last night, why did you raise rates instead of passing the savings along to your customer?

I want to echo the comments about the "families with small children" policy. I can see where on one of your "shuttle" legs (DAL-HOU, for instance) it would be beneficial to be at the front of the plane... if every second counts. Also, on a 45-minute flight, if the 3 year-old behind me was kicking, I wouldn't be that worried about it.
However, on BNA-SAN, it is VERY important to me that I either can sit in a spot where I'm not annoyed by children, or I can sit in a spot where my child isn't annoying.

So how much more fuel efficient is the -700 than the original 737's... and how many of each are in the Southwest fleet?

ON TOPIC POST!
The San Diego Sheraton is the paradigm of hotel nickel-and-diming, and they have the best location possible to do it. If you're staying at the hotel, you are a $12 to $14 taxi ride away from anything and everything in San Diego. I would only recommend it if you're there for a convention at that hotel... and even then you might get a little stir crazy.
By the way, expect to pay a lot for that Cobb salad. San Diego isn't the cheapest place in the world... and the Sheraton takes advantage of that fact. 🙂 I haven't been out there in over a year, but if they're still on the menu, the don't miss entree for me is the pancakes at breakfast.

Space bags (linked above) are especially helpful for the trip **home** when you have the dirty clothes to deal with. We also toss in a spare gym bag in case we get too overstuffed.
The other nice thing is that we've never had a lost or delayed bag when we've checked with Southwest, and that's been a stack of flights, even though my wife and I are non-business travelers.
BNA-BWI in two weeks! 😄
