Passengers only care about flying down to Orlando for $49.00. They demand cheap airfares and then whine when there's no service.
Comedians made careers out of complaining about airline food, then were upset when the airlines stopped serving said meals.
But these same people want to fly for the cheapest possible price available. They have demanded Greyhound prices and seem surprised by the Greyhound services.
People want to enjoy the finest things in life - best car, desiner jeans, huge house, big screen TV. They then DEMAND "Sully" when something goes wrong up there on their $49.00 flight, flown by a guy making $17,000/year (and hasn't seen his wife in 10 days).
Remember after the Colgan crash - there was all that talk about airline pilot pay. Hell, even Congress was concerned. Ahh, that was a good week.
