The US airline industry continues to be everyone punching bag.
Everyone has horror stories of this and that going wrong. And they are more then willing the drone on and on about it. (Jello Biafera talks about this need to talk about the bad in our life quite elegantly on the album “I blow minds for a living”).
No one ever tells good stories.
Yesterday I was scheduled to be on Northwest flight from Detroit to Baltimore at 529p.
At 1254p I was putting gas in a rental car.
At 132p I was sitting on a plane home.
In those 32 minutes I returned the rental car, caught the shuttle back to the airport, checked in, cleared security, bought a newspaper, drank two glasses of water, and boarded the plane.
I didn’t cut in line. I didn’t use any special line at security or checking in. I never moved faster than a walk.
Oh yeah, and I traveled 404 miles in 1hr and 4min safely.
