Having done quite a bit of traveling to date, I’ve experienced a number of oopsies, some the airline’s fault, some a passenger’s fault and some simply an act of God. These include getting hit up for a bribe by airport staff in Belem, Brazil in 1989, taking two days to get from Orlando, FL to […]

I flew on US Airways to Costa Rica. I regularly fly down to Costa Rica, usually on Delta. I hadn’t flown US Airways in awhile, but the tickets were cheaper. Never Again. NEVER. Shortly after we took off, a man in the aisle next to me ignored the rules prohibiting electronics–that is, he turned on […]

“TOO BAD” FOR TOO TALL I flew Continental from Indianapolis, IN to Manchester England for spring break. I am a tall man, 6’5″ and simply sitting in the seat is a crunch with my long legs. Not only did the passenger in front of me lean his seat back all the way, he would constantly […]

My biggest issue of flying on these airlines. I hate nothing more then having my tray table out, working on my computer and the 400 hundred pound bald guy reclines his seat. Now you would think this rude over weight guy would slowly recline his seat but no! He uses all of his 400 pounds […]

Last September my husband and I were traveling from Orlando to Omaha. We prefer direct flights, but we got a good deal on a different airline that required a layover in Atlanta. I was already upset about this b/c I despise the Atlanta airport, but whatever, no biggie. We fly to Atlanta on a normal […]

Inside the terminal of the Manchester, NH airport, I waited patiently amongst the crowd and watched as the first throng of passengers boarded our flight to LAX. As the last few passengers of that group were boarding, the call for the second group had sounded over the intercom. The second group, myself along with them, […]

When I would go visit my family in Arkansas, I sometimes flew little puddle jumpers to either Texarkana, El Dorado or Camden. The first time I fly to El Dorado, it was quite the experience. The lady sitting across the aisle from me was from Mexico and didn’t speak a word of English. It was […]

On a flight from Santo Domingo to Miami, my wife and three children are seated in two rows in the middle of the plane while I am seated a few rows behind them. About fifteen minutes after take off, a horrible fart odor fills the air around my wife and kids. My wife, not being […]

So my husband and I booked our first overseas flight, I didn’t know what to expect, I am a fairly new flyer. So we ended up on a Jumbo Jet to Amsterdam and we were sitting in the middle three rows of the plane. We get settled into our seats and this guy comes to […]

Recently, I was on a flight from Salt Lake City to Atlanta. It was an overcrowded flight with too much luggage. No one seems to want to pay the check luggage fee of only $15.00 so boarding was a nightmare. Anyway, we got in the air and the flight attendant had just made the announcement […]

My sister was married in Cancun, Mexico a few years ago. A few hours before the ceremony, my grandmother slipped on some wet marble, fell, and broke her knee. A few days later we arrived at the airport, prepared to head home on a U.S. Airways flight. The airline had no idea how to deal […]

How about flight from hell, for my disabled husband? The boneheads at security always frisk him down. Even ask him if he can walk (he’s in a wheelchair), what would YOU assume? He can walk only with assistance because he hasn’t ANY balance. So it is a comedy of errors trying to get him thru […]
