Product Description

Now boarding for the hit A&E(r) reality series AIRLINE, where every flight is a guaranteed trip to the land of zany human behavior. Travel has never been so much fun! Every day the hard-working and harried employees of Southwest Airlines interact with thousands of weary, giddy, fussy, confused, grumpy, and sometimes genuinely nice travelers. The results are pure entertainment, full of all-too-real drama and unexpected comedy. From smelly passengers, weather delays, and gospel singers to tired executives, howling children and celebrity sightings, each fast-paced episode of AIRLINE captures the unforgettable and oh-so-familiar realities of flying. At the same time, the behind-the-scenes views of America's fourth largest carrier bring a new appreciation for ever landing at your correct destination. Culled from nearly 5,000 hours of footage at two of America's busiest airports--Los Angeles International and Chicago Midway--AIRLINE features all 18 episodes of its debut season on DVD for the first time. DVD Features: Interactive Menus; Scene Selection. NOTE: DVD does not include original broadcast theme song.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is what 'reality' TV should be., June 22, 2005
By Michael T. Rognlien (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Very few 'reality' TV shows are very realistic at all; they're staged, scripted and sliced/diced in the editing room to create dramatic stories that probably bear little resemblence to the 'real' events that actually transpired.

Not so with "Airline", the pseudo-documentary program on A&E (and now on DVD) that chronicles in 30-minute episodes the various trials and tribulations a handful of Southwest Airlines employees go through while trying to get a sometimes insane public to and from their destinations.

The sad part of this, and if you travel frequently you've probably witnessed it yourself so many times, is the fact that so many people in this country are just plain scary in their aggressive ignorance of the world around them, the law and their responsibilities and etiquette associated with travel. Among the most frightening examples:

1. The passengers who demand that it is their God-given right to board a plane whether or not they're too drunk to stand up
2. The MANY passengers throughout the 18 episodes who, given the SLIGHTEST inconvenience, threaten to sue everyone in sight
3. The many passengers who show up to the airport only minutes before scheduled departure and then scream and yell when told that it's not the airline's fault that they are going to miss their flight(s)

I am not a regular Southwest passenger because I don't enjoy the cattle car mentality of being herded on and off a plane, and also because the times I have flown them, the passengers have been as bad or worse as the ones shown on this show. However, I am impressed by the ability and the mindset of its staff in handling the various sticky situations they encounter, and can better understand how they have managed to stay profitable in a (pardon the pun) turbulent competitive environment both before and after 9/11.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this show!, April 25, 2005
This is definitely one of the most entertaining shows on TV! Just when you didn't think the world could be any wackier, you enter into the world of Airline. It's cheap, and the only downfall is that it doesn't include the original theme song, but the show is so good, that you look waaay past that. I recommend it to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, June 9, 2005
By C. DeJesus (Kosovo (U.S. Army deployed)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had never seen or even heard of this show until I somehow stumbled upon it on Amazon. After readin the above reviews, I decided that I would get it. Boy, what a great investment! Not only do I thoroughly enjoy the show,laughing so often and intrigued when I am not laughing, I am now more inclined to fly Southwest (although I do so already most of the time I do fly). Not only is it entertaining, but it is also knowledgeable in certain aspects. For those looking to go into airline customer service, being a flight attendant, or another career in the airline industry, the jobs are fully explained in the show. My only question: Is there a season 2 coming out?
