Yeah, a direct flight from ATL to BOS is about 2 hours, and it's an 18 hour drive. Even allowing the fact that we live an hour from the airport and check-in, we're waaay ahead flying.
Speaking of air travel, it looks like we all will be going to Annapolis for Thanksgiving. We're talking about an excursion to the Baltimore aquarium - with at least us and my cousin and his 8 and 5 year old daughters. We could also plan some "away from people we are related to" meetup time to improve the overall sanity levels, right? We'll probably have a rental car, so we could even go to DC.
Okay, fair enough. I'd still rather drive 10 hours than spend 2 in one of those seats.
Hmm, with my children? Might be a tossup. They'd be amused by the seats, and could play horsie. While after 10 hours in the car, I am usually just sort of murder-suicide.
(Yes, we will be flying ATL to BWI, and it's 1 hr 45 minutes in the air vs. a 12+ (hello, DC traffic!) hour drive.)
Hell, I'm still angry at airlines that charge you extra for headphones.
I was thinking about it, because I think I might find that seat OK for an hour. If it were cheap enough. I don't know -- I think I might rather actually stand than perch.
Ding ding ding. I'm fairly convinced this may be the primary motive behind them in the first place.
Yeah, they're saying "Look how bad it could be, now shut the fuck up and eat your stale, peanutless snack mix"
I am usually just sort of murder-suicide.
Sort of? That sounds like the kind of thing that you should be decisive about ;)
I flew first-class once. *That* was nice.
Happy Birthday, smonster and Sophia!
Those seats wont be approved by the FAA.
