I'm noot afraid of flying, I just don't like many of the passengers. They are loud, boorish,dress like slobs, and are always yaking on their cell phones. The experience of having to show up hours early, being groped and scanned, and having your flight often delayed or cancelled is another negative. Air travel today is very much like bus travel was a generation ago, except you can get better food at the airport.

I have stopped, except for overseas travel. I drive my shoe sized car everywhere I want to go.

Not so——you can get off the bus.

I was on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago beside a couple of drunks. It was quite annoying.

I know someone who has flown all their life, been to all 7 continents, flown all over the world. He has always said they should triple the price of airfare to weed out the rift raft....LOL! I don’t know if I agree with him but I can see how he came to that conclusion with some of the people he has seen on an airplane.

I remember when flying was fun and a family experience. I remember just walking thru the thing to see if u had a gun, that was all. My mom used to carry her min pin right on to the plane (first class) and they never said a word. I am not kidding. She flew back and forth from Colombia many times with that dog. Now flying is something u dread!!

What airlines have you ridden on that allow the passengers to talk on their cellphones in flight?
