They should've just raised the price. This is going to piss off leisure travelers because they pack for longer stays and because business flyers often won't have to pay.


The good news is that since it happened on my return trip I don't have to worry about going without its' contents.

Oh, I refuse to give up bin space and put shit under the chair in front of me to "accommodate larger bags". I fail to see why I should sacrifice my leg room because some prick doesn't want to check their bag.

Or, more likely, I will fly... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Lloyd Bonafide) http://www.survivorsucks.com/sreply/2978082 Thu, 22 May 2008 05:56:45 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Fyling American this summer?
