USA does operate torture flights out of the Netherlands

fikkie.jpg

The culprit is US Airways, a company which torments its travellers by putting them into burning aeroplanes. The plane was supposed to travel from Amsterdam to Philadelphia, but the pilot apparently decided that he didn't need the extra illumination on his left wing, and returned to Schiphol Airport. No one was injured.

Another example of offshoring. They used to be called "Agony Airlines" when they were Allegheny Airlines, and now they are "US Scare."

LOL. Wish me luck then. I'll be flying from SFO to Las Vegas on January 3, 2006, with US Airways... (The flight to SFO will be KLM.)

Talk about torture... I'm flying Continental from Amsterdam to Houston next week, and just found out that they have the nerve to charge $5 for drinks in "economy" class. Ten hours in steerage is bad enough... but ten hours *sober*?!

Remember me?


Epibratie
"I believe in life. I believe in treasuring it as a mystery that will never be fully understood, as a sanctity that should never be destroyed, as an invitation to experience now what can only be remembered tomorrow. (...)
I believe in liberty. I believe that within every soul lies the capacity to reach for its own good, that within every physical body there endures an unalienable right to be free from coercion. (...)
I believe in the pursuit of happiness. Not its attainment, nor its final definition, but its pursuit. I believe in the journey, not the arrival; in conversation, not monologues; in multiple questions rather than any single answer."
Andrew Sullivan
