British Airways Passenger Is Fined $15 For Taking Pictures Up Flight Attendant’s Skirt
Yes, things like this really happen. Gotta figure alcohol was a factor here, as there aren’t too many sane folks who would think this is appropriate.

I Don’t Think I Agree That Flight Crews Should Be Exempt From Airport Security
Certainly I’m a bit late voicing this opinion. The TSA decided a couple years ago that pilots wouldn’t need to be searched going through security. Last year flight attendants were added to this list.

Count me amongst the crowd of people who don’t like turning off their electronics when it’s time to close the airplane door. I rarely shut off my phone, hence the reason I love wifi so much.

The exit row on these planes generally has plenty of legroom and this was a fairly short 2-hour flight. So, even someone as spooled as me could survive in coach. I was […]
