I fly 6-12 round trips per year. Not a true frequent flyer but I imagine I fly more than the average person. I'm not wild about my travel experience, but it seems to me that my flight experiences, now that I have adjusted my expectations to account for paying for checked luggage and/or feeding myself before I get on a flight, are just fine. My experiences with JetBlue, as opposed to Delta or AA, are just fine.
I have also flown AirAsia on several occasions and find that while I initially felt like was being nickel and dimed, the experience was quite good.
It is the airlines with the huge legacy costs of pensions and union contracts which seem to be the worst.
