People flying on American Airlines say they want flight attendants to shut up about the carrier's credit card deals and stop the mid-flight advertising spiels – Business Insider
I see most airlines doing this but AA seems to be the most pushy. At least they have solid offers though. I don't mind it as long as it is at the end of the flight. You can't do it while people are sleeping etc.
I will say that nothing kills me inside more than seeing someone take that Spirit Airlines credit card offer from the flight attendant. Although I doubt Spirit thinks as little about their program as Frontier does.
TSA PreCheck Adds Four New Participating Airlines – Travel Pulse
I'll take 4 obscure airlines for $500 Alex.
