That is why I always enjoy your postings, John. You are the real deal. Jets are designed to carry a load of weight. Mostly luggage and shipping containers. That's where the real money is. As an after thought came passenger service was considered. But in doing so the air industry realized that flyers wanted everything for nothing. Funny, but I haven't heard of any nightmares of chair users stuck in jets for 8-10 hours because of weather and no gate at arriving airports....... yet. I also know several people that don't eat at fancy restaurants because of portion control servings. They will only eat at buffets, so that they can eat their weight and pay a fraction of the price as those high priced eateries with fancy names that you can't pronounce. Those buffets are no more accessible than the fancy restaurants, but Hey.... for the price and all the food, drinks and creme pies.... who cares (lol) Fly me to the moon and I'll see ya there!

I rank flying up there with say, a root canal without anesthesia, or catching on fire. It is never a good experience and the best part about it is that nobody on the plane really wants to be on the plane. There is a sense that you're not being treated badly because you are handicapped, you're being treated badly because airlines are involved! <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
