    Air travel has changed

    Flew 3 times last year delayed 3 times and car rental was even worse than the flight time wise.

    I waited each time for a car because they have so few. They all cost more than the flights.

    But I have to say that this looks like a normal airport day. Nothing unique to the last couple years. Except for barfing on the carpet. That's a new one.

    I loved that show, 'Airline' when it was on. On A&E, I think. I even bought the first season on DVD. It was 90% just airline personnel dealing with the most insane and out of control passengers + just weird stuff. There was the time someone reported that roaches were coming out of an elderly man's checked suitcase. They took it outside, opened it and dropped it on the ground and a hundred roaches went scurrying off in all directions. A family on their way to an out-of-town party showed up with many, many open cases of liquor that they wanted to check as baggage. And even then, 17-18 years ago, you had passengers getting in each other's faces because someone thought the other person gave them a nasty look. Some of the show's greatest moments involved the "Do you know who I am?" people.

    I think I've only flown three times in the last twenty years - for a graduation from Army flight school, a wedding and a funeral that I had to make arrangements for.

    I love to fly but I rarely do it now because people are just dicks. First class isn't much better just less of them.
