It's been close to 4 years since I've been on a plane and after 42 years and 39 countries, I have never seen an airport this jam packed. I heard after COVID it was even WORSE.
I'm sitting here surrounded by about 5000 people with no seats, no room at the bar, people tripping over each other and just a loud mess. Of course everyone rushing the gate to get on first.
If there’s one thing I miss about Covid, it’s not having to travel for work. Man, that little break from having to do it was sure nice. Usually every 2 months or so for me and it’s all the typical business spots; Orlando, Vegas, Atlanta, drive to Chicago, repeat. So mind numbing, and airports are one of the most miserable places a human can be. [Reply]
How about the people who act like you are a piece of shit for not switching seats with them when they have a middle seat… so they can sit with their kids, spouse, etc.
I wish you all knew the joy that is deplaning at the Burbank airport. It's on the tarmac and they unload from the front and the rear of the plane. They're the only airport that does this and I hope they never stop. It's genius when you're flying there to go straight to the very back row and know that it's actually first class [Reply]

Laughing my balls off. Jetway is 110-115°
Be glad you aren't in a plane sitting out on the tarmac for three hours while passengers are passing out... [Reply]

I don't like the no assigned seats but Southwest definitely has better service and prices between Sacramento and KC than other airlines. [Reply]

Find me another aisle seat, I’ll switch.
YES YES YES
I usually fly eow. This lady got mad because she couldn't sit with her sixth grade son (who was literally one row behind her).
I'm 6'3, I don't want a fucking middle seat lady. Sorry [Reply]
It's the 95⁰ at 10pm that sucks... you get used to the heat to a large extent, but having no break from it 24/7 for weeks on end in June/July kind of sucks. [Reply]
