Fly Southwest: BUR to Pasco, Washington

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, frequent flyers and occasional sky-hoppers! Put on your most comfortable socks and stow those tray tables, for we are about to embark on a deliciously humorous ride from that peculiar little enclave known as Burbank, on a direct flight (or non-stop for the uninitiated among us) to the picturesque Pasco, courtesy of Southwest.

Southwest is your knight in shining metal skin when it comes to flights, especially for those lucky duckies who don't fancy themselves a layover. And, for anyone who sobs at the mere thought of waking up at bird o'clock for a red-eye flight, a simple, straightforward, one-way trip sounds like a dream come true, does it not?

But, let's not get on the wrong foot here. Not all of us are gallivanting off into the sunset on a whim, with a few having premeditated these antics weeks (or even months) earlier in search of the elusive "cheap flights". Fear not! Southwest exposes all wanabee frequent flyers to a smorgasbord of flight deals that are as exciting as finding an empty row on a transatlantic flight.

Hold onto your in-flight peanuts dear travelers, for the fun is just beginning. Pack your unseemly amount of carry-on luggage (depending on your baggage allowance, of course) and pray to the airline fairy for a surprisingly spacious economy class seat. Business class you say? Ho ho, aren't we feeling lavish?

The best time to book is always now... or yesterday. Time traveling is available upon request but we're still working out the on-flight meal service for that one. If you’re part of Southwest's mileage program, you might just find that booking your journey weeks ahead feels as thrilling as finding an outlet at the airport or witnessing a flight attendant successfully close an overstuffed overhead compartment at the first attempt.

Moving on, let’s spill some tea on Southwest’s delicious in-flight services. From their cheeky peanuts which will have you thinking "Who needs peanuts when you have... well... peanuts?", to their deceptively comfy blankets which double as superhero capes with a little creativity, everything screams: "Sit back, fasten your seatbelt and don't fret about turbulence - your cocktail won't spill!"

But what, you may ask, if something goes pear-shaped? Well, ladies and gents, Southwest's flight cancellation policy is about as easy as distinguishing your black suitcase from the other million black suitcases on the conveyor belt. Stress not - if the flight schedule is sent off-track by aliens, rogue pigeons or the occasional torrential rainstorm, Southwest has got it covered!

So pack your bags and prepare to laugh in the face of sad, shriveled airplane food, my friends. Southwest’s flights from Burbank to Pasco are your ticket to cloud nine. Don't just take my word for it though, check out those airline reviews. Who knew flying could be such a hoot!

Until then, dear travelers, keep your seatbelt fastened, your window shade up and your sense of humor airborne. Burbank to Pasco was never quite this fun, was it?
