Flying Delta next time

Plusy: If this Tallahassee to Key West had been a bargain price, I would feel better about flying exclusively in prop planes with baggage problems. As is, I paid $403 up front months in advance for this NOT nonstop flight that changed the time of the second flight by 4 hours both going and coming. Any advantage I thought I had with the timing was lost.

Minusy: The planes were small, 34-seat, and they could not fill them because of weight issues. We were encouraged NOT to check bags through (never really understood this) and to gate check carry on bags for valet service. I will say that all Silver staff were courteous and helpful. They just didn’t seem to have enough staff.

Much the same both legs

Plusy: Review asks for comment on each leg but pro’s and cons about the same. I liked the Silver staff, gate and onboard. it was a short flight each leg, with a complimentary small bottle of water. The flights were fine. It is great landing at the same terminal where your connection leaves from.

Minusy: Baggage was an issue for me this trip. I was traveling with a roll-on that I planned to check, a smaller roll-on, a laptop and case, and a CPAP. Both going and returning they encouraged me to gate check/valet the roll-ons, which I did on the way to Key West. But that burdened me during the long layover in Fort Lauderdale that was not part of my original itinerary. I did check the larger roll-on for return flight ($35) and am still waiting for the carousel to start turning 30 minutes after reaching baggage claim.

Plusy: Quick boarding and unboarding

Minusy: Cabin had no air circulation and was hot and stuffy

No such thing as “Silver Lining” with this airline

Plusy: Nothing

Minusy: Tallahassee to Tampa has to Walk out on the tarmac in the rain no umbrella & no poncho offered... to wait 10 minutes and have to walk back out to the same plane to head to ft Lauderdale Waited to get off plane in ft Lauderdale for thunderstorm and 30 minutes for luggage Crew was fine

Plusy: Fast checkin and boarding

Minusy: a very expensive short trip

Minusy: I will be filing a formal grievance
