Suggestions for air travel
Dec. 21st, 2005 02:33 pmIn the spirit of the holidays, I offer the following suggestions.
My past life includes one of those jobs where I traveled constantly. It was not unusual for me to go into the office in the morning and be handed tickets so I could attend a meeting in another city later that afternoon. I've done the 32 cities in 25 business days adventure, and for a while I was a regular at an airport bar. I took the late flight out of Pittsburgh so often that when I walked into the bar I didn't have to say a word. The bartender would simply pour me a draft and hand me one of the pre-made sandwiches they kept under the bar.
Luckily my job no longer requires travel, since flying has become even more difficult in recent years. But my lessons serve me well, and in that spirit I offer the following ( Rules for airline travel )
