Altitude Sickness
My parents instilled in me many values:
... the value of self-confidence ...
... the value of cooking from scratch ...
... the value of generosity ...
... the value of earning advantage miles ...
Being raised in Dallas,
I'm a faithful American Airlines passenger.
My AAdvantage account was started when I was 5 years old,
and I hit Platinum for the first time when I was 19...
I, typically, love everything about my AA experience.
From the direct service from London to Dallas
to recognizing the voice of the welcome video,
to the faint hope of an upgrade.
But, I have to ask:
WHEN DID FLIGHT ATTENDANTS BECOME SO GROUCHY?
 |
| Too bad my mom isn't condescending, or this ad could still be relevant. |
The treatment to passengers
by the flight crew has been so rude
on my past few flights-
I am appalled.
Whatever happened to the glamourous days of flying?
Because these days, I walk off the plane
feeling less like a jetsetter
and more like a piece of of mishandled luggage.
The truth is, flight crew:
I'm actually your biggest fan.
You serve me dinner
(without asking for a tip),
play the role of in-flight concierge,
and are even trained to save my life.
I completely respect for the work you do.
I'm just left to wonder...
Is it impossible to fly coach
without feeling abused?
