I am in Salt Lake City*, took the non-stop Delta flight out here (about 2 hrs). I have no ‘status’ on Delta so I had to pay money to check my bag ($25), and I paid extra for an Economy+ seat with more leg room ($39). You can even buy priority boarding for $9 (why? -to get your carry-on luggage into the overhead bins before they are full! ) and once on board and at 10,000 ft you can get wi-fi internet access for $4.50 per each 30 mins.
*it’s the same project as the one I traveled to the client’s Pittsburgh headquarters for. The facility where we will do the project is out here in the Salt Lake City area.
