I flew NW for the first time a few weeks ago. On the first flight, they forgot
to bring eating utensils on the plane, so they only served bagels and drinks.
The planes were pretty dirty inside I have to say. The seats looked very old and
squashed and like they hadn't been cleaned in years. Stuff like this isn't
really a big deal to me though. Any flight that doesn't plunge out of the sky is
a good flight to me, however, they've really got to work on tidying up the
interior of their fleet. On the plus side I got to take a ride in a British
Aerospace RJ7. I've always wanted to fly in one of those. That plane seemed
cleaner, but it is also run by a "Mesaba Airlines" even though it is painted as
a Northwest jet. 

Will anyone else miss TWA?
