Julie Padilla+FollowWestJet Backs Down on Cramped SeatsWestJet just did a total 180 on their plan to squeeze more seats (and less legroom) into their planes after passengers and crew went off about the lack of comfort. The Canadian budget airline, which flies to 19 U.S. states, is ditching the tighter layout and bringing back the old, roomier seats. Proof that if enough people complain, airlines actually listen—and our knees can breathe a sigh of relief! Would you pay more for extra space? #News #WestJet #AirlineNews00Share
Kristin Shaw+FollowSpirit & Frontier: Cheap Flights, Big DramaGrab your coffee—Spirit and Frontier, the kings of budget flights, might finally tie the knot after years of on-again, off-again talks.

Both airlines are struggling to keep up with the big guys, so this could shake up your next vacation plan. Stay tuned—this airline soap opera isn’t over yet! #Business #Industry #AirlineNews00Share
