They helped her by breaking the bead with some tongs or something.

If you suffer from from fear of flying, any smell can make you ill. I have a funny story regarding a flight near a "lav" (on a different blog), but since I don't know anyone here yet, I'll avoid putting up the URL. The newer planes have better control over lav odor. I used to be an engineer for Air Canada, and we had hundreds of weird lav stories. Brent Well, any seat close to the kitchen can be pretty smelly too.

Sometimes I sit at home in my big leather recliner watching my 1080p high definition television while drinking an ice cold coke and think, "Its about 2 degrees too warm in here, dammit!" Then I'm upset that I have to actually get up and go turn down the air conditioning. Frankly we are spoiled. Of course, the airlines have done their best to glamorize travel for many, many years now - and they are constantly telling us how much they <em>love</em> carting us around and how good they will take care of us when they are doing so. As a result I think they are gonna get hammered any time a customer has to revel in the sweet smell of urine for an entire trip. :-) But, either way, you gotta admit that is one funny letter... hehe. John Tom,

Sitting in a cramped seat with flimsy blanket never felt so comfortable. Our perspective on travel makes it easy or hard. Imagine if you had to travel by covered wagon across country instead of sitting in seat 29E.

I don't think that I ever realized it until I actually sat there, but the whole experience was a tremendous turn-off towards flying. Of course I was also sitting next to a guy who was sick...

I would hate to be assigned that kind of seat! Especially at 400 bucks like Lisa said.. Wow, that’s the plus of flying Southwest when I fly to California, I get to pick the seat…

Icky - icky - icky! I think I would probably chuck on the floor, and then the flight attendant would <em>have</em> to move me. There would be no way my queasy-weasy self could sit through that! Funny letter, though - it's awesome that he wrote it while he was 'in the moment'! Good thinking on his part! Over $400??? I would be so completely and utterly livid!! Icky – icky – icky!
