[quote]I just want to get off the plane as quickly as possible now. I've never felt that way before.
It's just unhappy to fly now.
Agreed. At least I'm going to a convention in Florida and half the flight will be people from my company.
I still loathe it though. People wearing their fricking pajamas to fly makes me want to cause a scene.

No offerings on Delta or SWA. Only Coke and snacks.

I’m AA.
Probably same deal.
And you still owe me a shot at moving your freight.

I get that flying is the most efficient form of travel, but it seriously sucks arse.
Can’t bring any liquids over a shot’s worth. Have to get to the airport 2 hours ahead of departure, and almost any airport is a royal PITA to get to. Strip down in the security line, basically take everything out of your bag, get bitched at by a high school dropout TSA worker. Scramble to get to your gate, only to stand in line for 20 minutes to get packed like sardines into a beige aircraft. Wait another 20-25 minutes to leave, taxi, and finally take off. Constantly get elbowed by the fatass sitting in the seat next to you. Can’t purchase alcohol anymore. Have to keep your mask on, and get bitched at by the flamer flight attendant if you pull it down. Wait in line to piss or shite. Land and wait another 20 minutes for people to get their shite out of the compartments and deboard. Wait another 20 minutes at the baggage claim if you had the misfortune of checking bags, and pray that they sent it on the right plane. Pay out of the arse for an Uber to your destination, unless the destination airport has public transportation.
I’m surprised more people don’t just drive places, or take Amtrak. I take the train whenever I can. It is exponentially more relaxing, and I don’t care that it takes forever. I would take it more places if Atlanta had more service.
frick flying with a vengeance. I say this as I’m sitting on a delta A320 getting elbowed by a fat frick with strong BO.
From your handle, I take it you fly out of Fartsfield Jackson and get to hear Kiesha's voice welcome you on the plane train. If so, the only other thing you left out is the fact that the ATL has only about 20% of the dining extablishments be open.

Unless you’re flying out of a specific few airports, you don’t really have to do this.

Wear something that doesn’t require a belt. Put loose change elsewhere. Have your ticket on your phone. Don’t take a laptop.

What are they bitching at you for? You can’t follow simple instructions?

I thought you got there early enough to avoid this? Why are you waiting 20 minutes? Stand up when your group is called.

If this possibility is that much of an inconvenience, fly first class.

Piss before the flight leaves, and get up to go when there’s no line.

I've started to hate flying too. But it's worth it to go somewhere fun. I have upgraded most of my flights in the past year and it does help. Precheck with a known travel number helps also. Mostly it's the gross people and being to close to them.

I’ve always liked it. Good people watching and get to see things from a cool perspective

There are ways to make this much easier on yourself. I take about 50 flights a year and don’t deal with any bull shite and have it down to a streamlined process.

Fat frick? I read this over your shoulder, and we’re headed straight to the sonic kiosk when we land.

sorry didn’t mean for that to come off vague. Get pre-check at least. I have Global Entry and Clear. I spend about 5 minutes in security.
Know what will frick with the metal detectors and what won’t. Belts, watches, etc.
Pick an airline and stick to them. You’ll get better and faster service. You may get perks if you get some status.
Get decent travel targeted gear. I have a Tumi backpack and I love it. Little things like quick access pockets make a difference.
Understand what you do and don’t have to do. Don’t be that guy in pre check that has no fricking clue what’s going on.
Carry on and learn how to pack efficiently so you’re not carrying a bunch of shite you don’t need.
That’s a few. And if you have to rent a car get Emerald Isle and frick everything else.
I might think of more. I’m pretty neurotic about my travel habits and hate wasting time.

Masks put people in fight or flight mode.
Being able to see people’s faces is important for our sense of security. People wear their emotions, and we can tell if they’re a threat or not. When we lose that information, it puts us on edge.

frick driving. If its longer than 4 hrs I fly.. And when you are going through in an electric wheelchair, you have to get pulled to the side, get patted down, search every part of my chair. Unbuckle my belt and unbutton my pants to make sure I have nothing hidden in the waste section of my pants.
But I can't blame them, because I could see thinking that they just let people in wheelchairs go through and would think it would be an easy way to sneak shite on a plane.
But one time I saw an old person in a wheelchair and they did just let them go after I just got violated.

This made reading all that worth it. Got a nice chuckle outta it. Enjoy your flight and thank you for choosing Delta.
