Pros: Yummy cookies. Wide seats. Cons: Limited routes mean extra layovers. Luggage was delayed.
I recently got to experience flying on Midwest Airlines, mostly courtesy of the U.S. government. What I mean is that my husband, Bill, took lots and lots of TDY (temporary duty yonder) trips on Midwest, racked up lots of frequent flyer points, and ...
Pros: Large, comfortable seats, edible food, solicitous staff, professional service Cons: Limited route network, older aircraft
On a recent trip to Minneapolis, I booked through Priceline, fully expecting to be jammed aboard another Northwest Airlines flight. To my complete surprise, the reservation that came back in my e-mail said I would be flying with Midwest ...
Pros: Great food, helpful crew, on time flights Cons: not a thing
When planning my family's recent trip to Washington DC, I started by looking on the internet for discount fares. After much searching, I broke down and called Rose, my local travel agent, who handles all of my travel arrangements. Call me old-fashioned,...
Pros: wide leather seating, friendly staff, chocolate chip cookies Cons: meal service completely eliminated, no more free wine/champagne, limited route network
Background:
Midwest Airlines (f.k.a. Midwest Express) is currently experiencing something of an identity crisis. They have always been a business traveler's airline. They were actually started in the early 80s by Kimberley-Clark's "K-C...
Pros: Price, service, seating - all good Cons: They don't fly everywhere
I have flown on many of the large air carriers in the US and the quality of the flights and service does not compare with Midwest Express. Based in Wisconsin, Midwest Express is a small airline that began as corporate air transportation for executives...
Pros: Exceptional Customer Service; nice perks - the cookies, and comfy surroundings! Cons: none to report this time!
I just returned from a flight during a winter weekend that could have been terrible - and for many fellow travelers in the airline world it certainly was with delays, cancellations, etc. However, despite the mishaps that caused a bit of discomfort, I ...
Pros: efficient, friendly, and comfortable flying experience Cons: ummm, just the bland pasta salad!
Okay, so I was expecting the worst. I'm a very picky traveler. If I have to sit in between strangers, or by the window, I have a fit, but I won't bore you with the rest of my traveling "wills and wonts". I wanted to buy a ticket on Northwest...
Pros: Leather seats, 2-across, with wide armrests, good food and sometimes chocolate chip cookies baked onboard. Cons: Still not much room between rows
When Midwest Express came on the market, they were the travelers dream alternative to traveling first class. As time has gone on, they have remained on top as far as good food and seemingly more room, although other airlines are now reconfiguring, so...
Pros: The way all airlines should be run, all the time Cons: It doesn't go everywhere!
Lately, you can't swing a dead American Airlines Bistro Meal Bag without hitting a newspaper headline about how awful U.S. airlines' customer service is. They've promised to get better, and instead they've gotten worse. You might almost believe that it...
Pros: You name it! Anything the other airlines lack, ME has! Cons: Too few flights!
Ok, I'm not one to rave, I'll be honest. But I will do it about Midwest Express.
The first time we (my 3 kids (5,9,11) and I) flew on them, was when United Express once again canceled their flight out of Muskegon, MI. This was on the weekend...
Pros: chocolate chip cookies, leather seats Cons: old planes, tight pitch, armrests make big seats feel small
For the last few years, I've been looking for reasons to fly the much heralded airline, Midwest Express. Given that everyone's singing their praises, I kept looking for reasons to go to Milwaukee--not that Milwaukee's a bad place. Hey, any city that...
Pros: Excellent food, comfortable seats, lots of leg room, great service Cons: Limited flights from my area
My only regret about Midwest Express Airlines is that they don't offer more flight options from my home airport, Eppley Airfield in Omaha. If I had my way, I would choose Midwest Express for every flight I take to any city.
Pros: Best Food in the Air, Great Service, Business-Class seating Cons: Limited schedule/service area
BACKGROUND
I am a very frequent traveler and pay particularly pay attention to the airlines I fly. I have flown every major airline in the last year (except Continental). I have flown First Class and coach on every major within 2 years so I...
Pros: 1st class seats and service, cheaper than other airlines 1st class Cons: can be more expensive than some coach fares
I started flying on Midwest Express while living in Milwaukee, WI. That would make sense since Midwest Express is a Milwaukee-based airline. My first experience on ME was quite memorable, I was flying from Milwaukee to San Diego.
