Another air-travel, aviation blog I recently discovered, Jetwhine, has an informative post today about how Southwest Airlines studied human engineering -- how we do things -- to come up with its unique boarding process. Like many blogs, including this one occasionally, it takes author Robert Mark a few paragraphs to get to the point, but keep reading. It's a great example of how Southwest has processes in place to think through everythig it does and continuously innovate.

    Comment of Delta's 15$ baggage fee. I'm seeing more customers avoiding the 15$ fee by checking their baggage at the gate. The gate reps are not collecting the 15$ fee at the gate. Why have a fee?
