Southwest cuz they're the best. Not til September though so hopefully shit has calmed down by then but I fear the opposite since Sept/Oct is when cold/flu season starts to trickle in. Already seeing an increase in a different demographic since restrictions have been lifted so who fucking knows. Hopefully my work isn't strict like they are now. We aren't even allowed to travel by public transportation anywhere and aren't allowed to travel to some states by any method or we have to quarantine for 2 weeks and use pto or go without pay.

Lol. Honestly we just need to be like an Asian country and mask up and have good hand hygiene. It's not difficult although Americans are stubborn on that for whatever reason. The same people who want everything back open. Can't have it both ways. Do one or the other. This virus is here to stay for a bit.

I have a trip booked to Europe in September for a wedding and I'm pretty confident I won't be going. That being said, domestic travel could ramp up again soon.

mystery3Where are you going?

Colorado (crucify me now folks) to go backpacking.

Then I got a trip planned to Hawaii in October- not gonna try and ski this time. Not sure that is gonna happen either. If either do, I'm making out mad on flights. Round trip to Denver from Columbus is about $100 and round trip to Hawaii is $500. Crazy

And it's cheaper if you're west coast or live near a major hub like NYC or Chicago. Southwest to Maui from San Jose or Oakland you could do close to 200-250 round trip lol. To Honolulu is even cheaper.

Lol I actually have before on southwest. You just gotta stare down people and they'll avoid your row haha. But I thought I read there will be no more middle seat for a while on most airlines. Perfect for me cuz wife likes the aisle and I'm a window licker.

I Hate the middle seat. I like the window seat for shorter flights and the aisle for longer flights so i can easily get up. Unfortunately I get the middle seat like every time I fly to FL to see my parents during Christmas. Spirit airlines sucks but last year I got a roundtrip flight for like $130.

I got a 1 way ticket from FLL to BOS for 21$ on spirit at the end of March. Spirit is the best airline no cap

Well apparently United Airlines isn't following the no middle seat goal they publicized. Saw a photo of a packed flight out of NJ today. Don't really expect anything better from them tho cuz united is garbage

I had to cancel my trip to NZ and HI this summer due to the covid. But I just scooped up tickets to Mexico City for dia de los muertos. $278 round trip for two out of Chicago.
