Even if your flight stops somewhere and you're on the same flight # and not scheduled to switch planes, sometimes they will switch the aircraft anyway and you'll get stuck. They are notorious for skrewing up- I've been stuck in Phoenix at least 3 times, once for 4 hrs, once for 6 hrs, and once 24 hrs.
The last time we were comming back from internext, Vegas, and we had a stop in PHX, they messed up and we were stuck overnight. I started to start bitching and then I looked over and saw 2 soliders in their fatigues who had to stay the night too. This one guy kept saying "how am I going to tell my wife and daoughter, I haven't seen them in MONTHS"- really brought me back to reality.

You are right about America West....we got stuck in Phoenix, too, trying to get home from Detroit. It was a nightmare.
There was a family trying to get to Seattle to plan funeral arrangements for the guy's brother.
We ended up flying the Southwest cattle car, which may not be the most comfy, but it got us home.
I don't have a favourite anymore. United has great flight attendants. Continental has better seating, as does ATA.
I haven't flown Delta in a while, so I don't remember.
I will try very hard NOT to fly America West ever again.
In general, they all suck.
