The King’s Rules for Air Travel
Posted by Barry on August 21st, 2006If you’re not smart enough to figure out row numbers
and that A is the window seat and C is the aisle seat,
then you’re not smart enough to be travelling by airplane.
When they say preboarding, it means preboarding. Group 1 means Group 1.
Anyone boarding out of order / cutting WILL be bumped to the next flight.
And anyone pretending they don’t speak English and don’t understand when they were clearly speaking English to someone else a few minutes ago will also be bumped.
I understand competition, supply and demand. But it’s just wrong that it costs me $100 more to fly to my in-laws in Austin Texas than it would to fly to Bermuda or the Bahamas….
And while I’m not a HUGE numbers guy, I do know that when you are selling every single seat on the vast majority of your flights and all your customers are crammed in like sardines and miserable, yet your airline is still losing money…then YOU’RE DOING SOMETHING WRONG.
Kudos to my new friends at JetBlue. Fantastic customer service, friendly flight attendants and gate personnel, enough legroom on the planes, and individual tv monitors at each seat. Nice to see a company that is at least trying to improve air travel.
