The Latest Sign the Apocylpse is Upon Us

ByEdward Pizzarello

Here’s a link to a blog suggesting that USAirways should be giving more to the passengers who survived the crash of flight 1549 into the Hudson.

I mean, really. Are these people high? Barring some remarkable change that finds USAirways was negligent in some way, they owe these passengers nothing extra.

Nothing.

They’ve given each passenger $5,000 (DOT only requires that they compensate up to $3,300). They’ve given all the passengers a year of their top-tier status, Chairman Preferred.

Oh, almost forgot. The accident wasn’t their fault.

This may sound a bit harsh, but anybody who thinks they deserve more is either an idiot, or some sort of ambulance-chasing lawyer looking for an opportunity to sue someone.

That is all.

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
