Airline travel
I've been listening to your show on 3-25-00 and as usual only hear
complaints about rude flight
attendants, overcrowding, and bad food. I would like to put in a good
word for at least one
airline--Southwest, which I have used at least four times during the
past year for flights to see our children in Utah and Texas. The
flight crew members were courteous and helpful even when the
plane was full of demanding passengers. The small box snacks, though
not fancy, were more than I
expected, and they always have my favorite in-flight
beverage--cran-apple juice.
Though choosing a seat when you get on is always a little
unnerving, it often works in my favor. On the last trip home from
seeing a new grand-baby, I found an open window seat. My seat-mates
turned out to also be new grandmothers either going to, or returning
from, visiting their children. We had a great time on that flight!
Though I would like wider seats, I think that, like most things
in life, flying is what you make of it. I, for one, am just grateful
to live in a day when living a thousand miles from a loved one
doesn't mean never seeing them again.
