I am sitting at the gate waiting to board my third and final flight to finally get to Kolkata. My trip has been crazy...and I would like to thank Amerian Airlines for making the journey all the more horrific. Are you even serious American Airlines..do you specialise in making travelers miserable? Did I just miss that slogan? You are the ugly step sister of all of the wonderous international carriers.
After a 3 hour delay in Chicago because they didn't "have a plane available" I made to London where I boarded my new favorite air carrier...British Airways. The seats are amazing, the food is scrumptous, and I am just generally happy with their service.
So here is what I have been thinking....
1) Why do people assume Im the biggest sucker around. Like the people at the transit desk in Dubai who tried to get me pay 250.00 for a ticket because they said I never had one. When I started to get a little jazzy...all of a sudden guess what shows up..my ticket!
2) If this public service degree doesn't work out...do you think there is a lucrative need for airline critics. I would be fanatastic. And who's to say critiquing airlines isn't a public service
3) I sat next a women on my flight to London who was taking her grand daughter on a trip for her 16th birthday. Apparently she has done this for all of her grandchildren when they turn 16....REALLY!!! Nana you are serious slacking
4) I can't wait to get there.

I'm laughing! Remember the days when Kathleen, you and I would be traveling together and you would get upset with me if I got "jazzy" with the airline folks??? I can still see you rolling your eyes and moaning...... "MOM!" The more things change, the more they stay the same!!
Love, Mom
