Nothing! Don't you listen to their pathetic safety announcements where they tell you over and over that the "PRIMARY REASON WE ARE HERE IS FOR YOUR SAFETY!" :rolleyes:
Oddly enough, I never hear that comment in the announcements I hear on foreign airlines. :confused: And you will not hear that on foreign flag carriers either ! So sad that they are concerned enough to do away with a fifty cent bag of peanuts wow! Race to the bottom anyone ?:rolleyes: Heard the sound of thunder how far off I sat and wondered . P.S its getting closer lol |
I have a solution for better security, as well as increasing revenue:
1. Passengers must go through TSA screening naked. 2. Airlines can sell overpriced bathrobes in flight. Problem solved! |

in all fairness, since 9/11, any passenger not in 1st or business class who relies on the airline to feed him/her...
wake up, people! if you want to pay peanuts for your ticket, you're not going to get any on your trip!!! Hell, if this keeps up, in a few more years they probably shouldn't expect to have an English-speaking flight crew, either. Oberstar, Prater, and management will see to that. now everyone can start playing the air violin! |

Thats because since there is no more service so they have to do something

If you want the food and drink by a first class ticket, no money? Welcome to the club. |

It is the airlines way to slowly adjust the pax to the new generation of flying, price of the ticket gets you a seat and nothing more.

In contrast on European flights on BA and Swiss all the FAs were in their 20s to mid 30s, beautifull and always smiled, I fell in love with a Swiss FA, looked like a model and actually had a conversation with me and laughed, being an FA used to be a job that young girls would take to explore the world and then move on, ever since it became a carrer it has been a disaster. But if you point that out then the PC police is all over you for age discrimination. |
Well, THAT's gonna save the airline... hahhaha!
Seriously, what are the pilots gonna eat now?? |
And they made fun of foreign carriers for charging fees for bags, priority boarding, and food.

On a recent flight I asked for a drink (wich I paid 5$ for) and the FA actually said out loud that the only reason she got up from her seat was becouse I disturbed her for it! (5$ and a snappy comment!), the service standards of US airlines just keep on falling. Although I think the problem is more of a US Air east attitude, on a Cactus flight the FAs were very nice.
I was aboard a cactus flight today with an absolutely stunning young blonde FA. She was very flirtatious, too! :D |
