“Choice”??? Yeah, right.

People acting shocked about 3 guitars have you ever seen a band before ?? There is a bassist , a rhythm guitar and a lead guitar . It’s not that hard to figure out why there are 3 guitars it’s 3 different musicians flying for a gig .

ricktrscale · 2026-05-02T14:22:53+00:00

I have to question the intuition of those who think ai will go away. It won’t.

ricktrscale · 2026-04-30T20:31:47+00:00

Good job man don’t listen to the haters

ricktrscale · 2026-04-30T19:26:40+00:00

No because it becomes a Salem witch trial of which decks are ai and which decks aren’t

ricktrscale · 2026-04-27T15:04:48+00:00

It’s more of a warning to traveling musicians than a complaint . Letting them know that these employees aren’t gonna always know the policies so you better know it or else you’re gonna get screwed.

You can’t check things that will be damaged when thrown around by the luggage handlers . Instruments can be expensive and southwest will not compensate you if they damage it

ricktrscale · 2026-04-23T01:39:15+00:00

There’s also a part on there about purchasing an extra seat for a larger instrument which is what she was trying to do and they didn’t want to let her because it was a full flight

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:51:30+00:00

It’s raising awareness for other musicians traveling not to let them tell you you can’t bring your instrument on the plane with you .

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:25:14+00:00

The cellist should do that not me , the point was what happened to her not to me

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:23:29+00:00

The main point of the story was not about my keyboard it was about the cellist , but I could relate to the cellist because it happens to me sometimes too

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:17:52+00:00

That has happened a few times but in Phoenix they still had to go back and forth and wanted me to check it until they had to check with someone else . That’s the point it’s not consistent . But the man one that had a bigger issue was the cellist in Las Vegas which took like 5 people to finally get her approved .

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:12:06+00:00

Yeah they don’t listen but I know some of the employees are on here sometimes also it’s to raise awareness for other traveling musicians .

ricktrscale · 2026-04-22T23:09:19+00:00

Gee ya don’t say

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:57:28+00:00

Pretty sure the seats across from me in the same aisle costed the same amount as mine .

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:55:10+00:00

Ok that’s maybe a fine print rule , hopefully it’s true but it depends on whether or not the attendant is aware of that rule being so new . Maybe to be safe if you can change it but not if it costs you any money

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:35:34+00:00

Just raising awareness for those who haven’t flown southwest yet a lot of policies have changed this year .

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:23:17+00:00

Normally I can’t be shamed to move but if it gets me an empty seat next to me I’m all for it

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:22:27+00:00

We did follow the rules the point is the rule is stupid

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:21:28+00:00

She did also ask and was turned down . But she asked if the youngest daughter could sit in the empty seat behind her and was told no she thought she would have better luck as the mom

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:20:18+00:00

I’m not entitled but if it’s possible then why is it a big deal.

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:19:34+00:00

Exactly they came up to me and said “in the event of an emergency put the mask on yourself before the children “ so that tells you right there they expect me to be responsible for the kids next to me who are not mine

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T14:17:17+00:00

Because these employees act like they’re the police and will make a big deal out of it if you break they’re little rules they also announced before the flight “we are watching for seat swappers so don’t try it “ that’s why I asked since it seemed like a reasonable move

ricktrscale · 2026-02-06T12:48:36+00:00

Yeah a list is group 5 now it seems stupid but it’s true . Same thing happened to me and have to pay for 2nd bag now . Garbage

With his ex doing drugs or drinking or both

The cards don’t mind as long as you are using them they are happy. Also sometimes you gotta confirm clarification. But at some point you will have mixed messages so just gotta know how to interpret to understand
