No checked bag at all, just a quick weekend with the GF so will be traveling light.
Frontier unfortunately is even more than Southwest, for some reason its at about $230 or so. Usually that's who I take and they are pretty cheap. But it is a sunday night flight so that may be why.
For me though I think the $80 may be worth it....I'll see if I can wait a day or two to see if southwest price goes down at all....
Good points! I think saving money and rejecting fear of a turboprop is the way to go.
Of course doesn't help when I saw an episode of air crash investigation where they featured a small turboprop that crashed on take off when the load shifted to the back causing the light aircraft to lose center of mass and then its nose pointed straight up and crashed
I watch those shows all the time (and I think I remember that episode) and it makes me terrified of flying, Then I have to fly somewhere and I totally forget about those shows. My dad was a pilot (private planes, not an airline pilot), but he was smart and he was able to retire from flying. Look at it this way: there's a lot of planes that don't crash.

That can happen on a jet. The problem there is unsecured cargo, not the model of the plane. That generally not going to be an issue on commercial passenger flights.
Denver to KC? Unless it's down and back the same day, just drive. Heck DIA is halfway there anyhow.
