I fly somewhere 2-3 times every month and lately I have noticed that flights are getting later and later because of all the luggage that comes on board and then has to carried back to the front to be checked into the belly of the plane. When we had the ban for carry on luggage, I never saw a late flight, I wish all luggage had to checked. What say you?

With all of the new checked bag fees, I am sure that the airlines would agree with you.

there are no fees on Southwest
I never check my luggage. I've got a bag that is exactly the correct dimensions for the overheard and if it doesn't fit in there I don't take it with me. The one time I did check my luggage it didn't arrive until I was already home again.
I really haven't seen a problem, and I travel every couple of months. Are you saying people should be forced to pay to have their luggage stowed?
or fat people so it is a win win
fat people? I have seen some pretty large people on flights?
They are the ones that have been in the news for trying to make fat people (like michael moore) pay for two seats IIRC
yeah everyone is 5'8" and skinny these days. I am 6'4" and find myself uncomfortable on a place when it is full.
If truth in advertising were enforced, Southwest would have to call it Telephone Booth Class. I don't fly them unless there is no alternative.
I never pay, of course I fly Southwest
I can't get Southwest everywhere.

I try to avoid all carriers if the destination is 7 hours or under I just drive. If not I rate the carriers in this order:
Southwest
American
Frontier
Delta
United
US Air
Continental
No, but you pay more, on average for your ticket. Southwest will be forced to change their model, they are now one of the highest labor cost airlines in the nation, because the other majors went ch 11 and renegotiated rates with unions. Add in CO/UA and DL/NW and upcoming America West/American (I don't utter the "U" word), ultra low cost competitors like Allegiant and Spirit and Love Field being open to everyone, and SW will continue to have struggles.
