Airline Pilot Airport Review: Kansas City!! Y’all…this is niceee ✈️🤌  

Yunno what I tried them the other day my boss told me about them n we got some on the way to the jobsite of the passao , it wasent off it that’s just where I worked that day but it was hella fire , also weird I’m just coming across this Becuase that was like 3 days ago haha.

Aww thank you!! It was so much fun getting to see the new airport. I just wish I could have explored for longer

same, but i went on the first flight out of there

I used to blow people's minds by explaining to them that you could see the door to your jetbridge from the curbside drop off. Lol. Oh well. It's so much better now.

My city too!

I live there to old airport was not nice but the new one is beautiful with all the art and stuff

Agreed dude as a kid who flies standby almost every 2 months because my dad works for American Airlines. I have to say the old airport will always be in my heart. 😢

Same. It was so much easier to navigate, even if there was nowhere to eat.

At least there’s a Cinnabon in the new one lol

Fond memories of starving to death and having no bathroom options past security, perhaps. Old MCI was straight terrible

ist just this one is so much better

same I miss the old one and it actually felt like an airport

I'd be happy with local AND a Starbucks lol

@@AlmostCaptainMorgan hi I love ur content 😊 could you tell me what kind of plane you fly? :0

$17 for a Sandwich because it is “local” isn’t attractive…

Literally coffee shops all over it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@Caleb129O​​⁠SWA exclusively flys Boeing 737s of a few different varieties.

Our new terminal!🎉

We had a great terminal now it's just an assault of retail you have to walk through just to get to the gate

Yup they messed it up. You could show up 30min before your flight and boom your were on the plane. Miss that for sure but hey now you can shop. Yay : (

TSA sucks everywhere but everything else checks out

@@nicholasmazzarella2720nah it’s great I like the new one way more Source: lived here for too long

Its definitely longer. Still getting used to it. Workers are too.

Awww thank you so much! Welcome Aboard!!!

Oooh that would be a cool costume! And sure--I have a bunch of videos on turbulence on TikTok and instagram, but I'll post here too!!

@@AlmostCaptainMorgan thank you so much!

Well almost all of it is local which means one doesn’t really know what your gonna get once you find the restaurant

Do you like the absurdity high prices also?

@@JacquesCukierkorn The prices aren’t actually insane! Obviously it’s more expensive bc you’re in an airport, but aside from that the prices are pretty reasonable!

@@Beariebear seems to me that compared with other options available at other airports and certainly compared with the prices those restaurants charge in town, the prices are high. That creates a desincentive for people to consume at the airport.

I went there cause I live near it and it was kinda annoying cause you don’t know if the local food is good, but if it was like fast food like the old one than it would be easier

It sucks.. you have to walk miles to get from one place to another

Awww thank you!! Welcome! And I did the majority of my flight training at the University of North Dakota

The semi-circular concourses were expanded and renovated several times

hi!!!

@@AlmostCaptainMorgan OMH HELLO

We have to give the instructions to the push crew. Usually the Captain relays in the information to them.

@@AlmostCaptainMorgan Thanks! Also another one if you don't mind 😅, why in the ATIS information does the time end with zulu, like "recorded at 12:00 zulu"

@@astaksantyna5780 _Zulu Time_ is _Greenwich Mean Time._ It is a unitary worldwide time standard that can be used so that you don't have to calculate the respective time difference of events happening in different time zones.

If doing a plane swap and you are delayed, another crew would fly the next flight. Probably an airport reserve or short call reserve crew

That completely depends on where and when you're delayed, why you're delayed, how much you're delayed and whether or not there are available crews and airplanes to swap. If you're delayed in Midland or Omaha, where there likely aren't any spare crews or airplanes, odds are there's not much the airline can do. If you're delayed going into MDW or LAS where there may be crews available to move up, reroute or possibly even reserves, then maybe. It also depends on what point in everyone's duty day we're talking about. Will the original crew be legal to continue after the delay? Will they be legal to cover a rerouted crew's original trip if crew scheduling swaps crews? What do passenger connections look like? Is the delayed flight a final destination for most passengers like LBB or TUS or is it going to a hub airport where most passengers are connecting like HOU or BWI? There are so many variables that there is no one single answer to your question other than "It depends"

@@comcfi SWA doesn't have airport reserve for pilots.

@@michaelcampbell6820 I appercaite it.

@@comcfi I apperciate it

100000%

Yes!!! I love that someone from KC loves the airport. I’ve seen a lot of dislike but I think it’s a huge improvement 💕

@@AlmostCaptainMorgan for realll. I feel like it functions better now.
