Well, I guess it beats driving 12 hours somewhere but then on the other hand if I was trapped on a runway for 9 hours. . . . . Flying has become just as much as a hassle these days, but at the same time without those hassles who knows what else might happen. Did I make sense? (might need another cup of coffee.....sigh)

You'll see me on a plane the day pigs fly. Until then I will stick to traveling by bus... I don't care that it takes over 20 hours to get to my favorite vacation spot...

Hi Caly....It's been many years since I've flown and long before all the security issues that are now in place. I'm not fond of flying at all.....I like to be in control of my transportation but have heard that it is a nightmare getting on and off planes at some airports with all the security measures in place. Sad that our world has come to this really but unfortunately as reports show it is necessary. Enjoy your visit with your son.

Hi Caly!


I haven't flown for ages. At first it was $$, then it was fear of flying, but now it's $$$ again ;) After all the issues with terrorists and such I think everyone became more aware of their surroundings.

I don't like the delays and extra security steps (although I'm glad it's a safer process overall), but I generally love to fly. I know it would get old if I did it all the time. But I don't fly often, so when I do it's a cool experience for me. I LOVE to people watch, and I love being up in the air. And I've always flown for pleasure, so I'm usually excited anyway about reaching my destination.

Flying experience is not fun anymore for me. It used to be part of an adventure to get on a plane. Now it's just another mode of transportation, granted a bit expensive mode.
It doesn't help with poor or no service from the staff and/or crew. Right now, every trip I take has a smidge of poor service or no service. I don't know if that's the result of the airline's policy or my own approach to the people working for the airline. Hmmm.

I hope you kid have a nice safe problems free no bags left behind flight!

Do you think if we fly naked, Daronda will get over her fears about flying? *grin*

I think it would help her forget those fears anyway, lol.
