"The Dreamliner is a new jet featuring technologies and characteristics -- such as larger luggage bins and higher humidity and cleaner air in the cabin -- intended to improve the flying experience for customers."

They'll still jam 125% more passengers in there than it was built for, and the inflight snack will soon be a paper napkin dipped in broth.

The airlines have managed to make flying less of a 'convenience' and more of a penance.

Even SouthWest. I guess the actual flight is okay, but the circus act at each end is just a royal PITA.

When asked if feeling-up passengers really made the skies safer, one "Inspector" replied: "Nah, I just like Groping you! Now turn-around and bend-over...."

It is only a matter of time before the Washington Elites demand a special tax on this plane. It's moving TAX IT.
