I can not believe that they are charging that much for a carry on pet. How about carry on KIDS ? Why don't they charge them that much.!!! They way more, use more fuel, make more noise, and kick the back of your seats while crying in your ears. How rude. The airlines needs to get a balance going. Charge full price for all kids, including babies. So that they can have their own seat and be straped in. Then put them in the back of the plane, so that only they can all hear themselves.
Last time I was on Southwest Airlines was over 5 years ago, and hope to never take them again. I was flying back from Ohio and really tied. But to my surprise, I had 2 children behind us. A 1 1/2 year old and a ? 6 month old. Both screaming, squirming, and the parents did nothing (except give their 1 1/2 their keys to play with). While tattling the keys, the kid was having fun kicking and hitting the keys against the back of my chair. Talk about RUDE, and Annoying. Did I get any sleep? No. Was I able to be comfortable and enjoy my ride, NO. When I asked the stewardess if I could move, there were no places open. When I asked if she could talk with them, she looked at me rudely and said that they were only kids.
In reality - after that. The airline should have reimbursed me and charged them for having the kids on board.
CHARGE FOR CHILDREN ---- The same price as adults. Maybe that will get parents to think about their kids and the people surrounding them, and drive.
Southwest - become more fair and professional, and think about all of your passangers...
