I never have thought of Independence Day as a travel opportunity. Stay home and BBQ with friends.

So you make your friends do the traveling? J/K

Ditto.

I would never fly on a holiday anyway. It’s just asking for trouble.

Atlanta is probably the busiest airport in the USA.

I had to double check that this wasn’t the Babylon Bee.

“So what I would suggest is haggling over the compensation. I got $112.07 instead of the $30 they offered me! Visit our website to learn more about how you too can make money during this crisis.”

If you have plenty-o-time, fly.

If you want to get there on time, bite the fuel costs and drive.

Five out of five checks on the OneGuyMeter.

Never Let a Crisis Go To Waste is a concept that arose out of corporate givernance theory. U.S. corporations being state-regulated mini-dictatorships, the concept has no place in a continent-wide representative republic.

Don’t go telling 0bama’s old Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel that though.

“...Since the hectic Juneteenth travel weekend...”


Ah, already our newest ‘holiday’ has become a ‘hectic travel weekend’. Who knew? Nobody travels on Father’s Day to see dear old dad. They’re making their plans to celebrate ‘Juneteenth’.

Preposterous—just as you say.

Aren’t mandatory experimental vaccinations great?

This!

Lack of aircrews is a massive problem, but the press is strangely incurious to investigate the problem.

Is the Biden administration cancelling the contract flights of illegal immigrants into US cities to ease the pilot shortage?

I guess I need some education. Can whoever put nasty keywords on this thread tell me how this story isn’t news and isn’t about the Goverment

“News and discussion of all branches of government, departments, agencies, law, policy, legislation, processes and judiciary.”

“News and discussion of current events.”

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who previously called on airlines to get in shape before the weekend, appeared to give up on getting things under control

Rump Ranger Buttigieg wants the AIRLINES to "get in shape"?

You want cause, look in a mirror ya damn shirtlifter.

Get straight. Go forward. Move ahead. Try to detect it. It’s not too late.

Wonder if Buttplugs $112 will pay for a dose of monkey pox antidote to protect him from his wicked and deviant lifestyle, where he’s also screwing up the lives of little children in his household?

They really don’t want the serfs moving around, so this mess is a feature not a bug.
