"Thank you for flying American Airlines" was the ironic gesture from the stewardess yesterday on American Airlines flight 346, from Chicago’s O’Hare airport to New York’s La Guardia airport. After a long day at a client offsite, my plane seat was fully prepped for me with:
- a Chicklet gum square
- an M&M
- a cocktail straw
- crushed peanuts
- pretzel crumbs
- indiscernable white specks
- some unknown liquid oozing into the carpet near my right foot
What else can you find?
So you want to fly from LA to New York in five and a half hours for less money than it takes to make the same journey on Greyhound and you are complaining about a dirty bus? Grow up. You get what you pay for.

I do want a clean bus! Nearly $500 for airfare, plus airport parking, taxis to and from, etc. Plus, my trip was Chicago to New York, not LA to New York. I checked Grayhound for the same trip and price was about $90. A huge difference, dude! For the price I paid, I’d like a semi-clean seat, thank you very much.
