How many people have the option to fly without bags, though? That's why I don't get Spirit.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm pretty sure the whole point about airlines charging for luggage isn't for them to save money on fuel or anything, it's for them to obfuscate how much it costs to fly, to make it harder for people to compare prices with other airlines.
Another part of it is that the airlines are taxed on fares, but not on fees. So the more "add ons", the less taxes the airlines have to pay.

Thanks, Burrell. I really appreciate that. Although the truth is that I love working in immigration because every once in a while, cases come along where you feel like you might be able to make a real difference. Which sounds cheesy and cliche, but it feels good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I totally agree with Burrell. I thought I was full up on cranky, but no! Good luck, Stephanie.

That sentence doesn't even seem like English to me.
Isn't travelling without any bags now considered suspicious behavior?
Yeah, I thought that was an automatic red flag.
Man, I need to hurry up with this becoming a wealthy eccentric plan, so I can have my own plane and pilot.

I finally got my hair cut--a rather cute short(ish) bob. Considering the last time I had my hair cut was before Christmas, I was way overdue. She chopped off close to three inches in places.

There's only so much they can do to your bagless self. Search your purse, maybe.
The first time I travelled on business with a partner who brought a leather satchel only, I thought that was totally badass.

I travelled once with no bag. And they closed LAX down and I ended up staying in SF overnight. Was teh nast.
