I would stand in line for any number of hours to visit my kids.

Hadn't flown in about 20 years prior to 9/11 but I sure wasn't going to expect my kids to risk their lives flying home to visit family. We began flying to visit them.

Don't care how inconvenient it is......our family flies.....all the time. To europe and within the US.

My daughter in law has a 9 month hold. How are you supposed to travel on a plane without a bottle?

The risk of actually flying is extremely low -but that's pretty cool that you would take that all the risk and inconvenience for your kids. And certainly to go to Europe or from coast to coast flying is the only way to go.

My travel is almost 100% within the Southern U.S. and I prefer to drive in an SuV with an Xbox and all the carry on luggage I want.

Same here. Fly nearly monthly so kds and grandkids never do. Funny, I'd been thinking of relaxing the rule.
