I decided years ago that I was through with flying. This was mainly because of price increases and service reductions by the airlines. As time goes on, passengers are another reason why I won't fly again. A passenger on Frontier Airlines was taped to his seat after he groped two flight attendants and punched a third. Imagine being stuck in an aluminum tube people someone like that.

Yes, I know that 99.9% of all passengers behave. But I also know that as soon as I get on a checkout line, the line stops because of problems. Yesterday, I had to cross a local toll bridge, and the automatic EZPass lane was closed. The lane with the guy in the booth wasn't moving. Then it moved very, very slowly. When I got there, the guy was wiping down the whole interior and closing out. Shift change. When the new guy arrived - walking slower than I thought was possible - he had to go through a whole setup procedure. Really, it was comical. Without even looking at me, he detected the EZPass and opened the gate. So, if you think I would have an uneventful flight, guess again.

July 11: "A woman was physically restrained to her chair with strips of duct tape aboard an American Airlines flight, the company says, after she allegedly tried to open the plane’s door while the craft was in flight and assaulted a crew member."

Sorry I have to disagree with you. I’m not going to curtail my love of travel because of a problem that might come up. Someone might cause a delay, someone might be unruly, it might rain, it might not meet my expectations. Life is too precious to waste thinking something might go wrong. If we have learned anything after this past year is to LIVE & do it to the fullest. Explore, travel when it’s safe to do so, roam the areas of the world. See what has been created for us. Not let others behaviour dictate our enjoyment.
