I propose a new quirky airline to unseat Southwest.

Introducing Midwest Airlines!

The snacks and drinks are all generic, the interior will feature corn motifs, deplaning will be extra slow because of all the saying goodbyes, and the winglets will proudly feature the tagline: "Ope!"

@TechConnectify I used to fly to the Chicagoland area on Midwest Express airlines. They had metal silverware and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. Too good for this world, alas.

@siracusa @TechConnectify They switched to plastic cutlery after a bad luck run of people playing "throw the knives at the wall" game while in flight. The airline collapsed after that. Some say it was the plastic cutlery, some say it was the aircraft electrics spontaniously short circuiting for some unknown reason.

@bartreardon @siracusa @TechConnectify Rumor has it the aircraft’s AC power outlets were installed upside down and nobody knew.
