Not encouraging.

This would be more encouraging if this was a decent airline.

US Airways is rated at 3.3 out of 10 by Airlinequality.com compared to Southwest's 8 out of 10.

They're still probably better than *shudder* Atlantic Southeast and have more destination options than Southwest.

Judging by the seating selection, it looks like a small plane.

Plane size

It is a Canadair CRJ 200 which is the smallest of the regional jets. Seating is normally 50. They get uncomfortable after about 2 hours.

Please please a direct flight from Detroit.

Unfortunately, I think the chances of direct flights from Detroit and Minneapolis/St. Paul died with the Northwest-Delta merger. Delta's even scaling back the Memphis hub in favor of more connecting flights through Atlanta.
