HERE'S A FUNNY FOR YOUR FRIDAY



Tales From a Road Warrior



(Source)--David Meerman Scott, a Lexington online marketing company owner and author, was a gold-level frequent flyer on three airlines simultaneously when based in East Asia in the 1990s, but now travels ``just" 50,000 miles a year.


...Peeve: One that drives me up the wall is noise. Other than the required security announcement, I don't think airlines should ever broadcast anything over their PA systems. I had an early-morning hour-long flight the other day to Philadelphia, and US Airways in the middle of the flight interrupted all of us to run some TV commercial: ``Guess what? We fly to Aruba!"


To wake me up halfway through the flight to tell me they fly to Aruba is just the most outrageous form of rudeness I can imagine!

A bluejet pilot was on cellphone walking and talking to his flight attendant girlfriend. "I love you, why you cry, Aruba is as wealthy as Arabia. I will never pick a wrong runway from Aruba, even if the dutch controller sucks!"
