    Aghhhh! I hate flying! Not a single trip I've taken in the last year, which has been 7 of them has been problem free. Nothing's on time, my connections gates have to be as far as possible, suitcase not on my flight, really fat man sat on me, screaming babies, etc. You name it!

    Have I been having really bad luck or have most your experiences been crappy too?

    I barely fly anymore. Last time I was on a plane was two summers ago, going to Vancouver. It was fine.

    Where are you going?

        I'm scared of flying. Something about being stuck in a glorified metal tube propelling through the sky 3000 feet above the ground. Maybe though it's a control issue. If I could sit right next to the pilot and do some backseat piloting, I'd be OK.

              They also give you bootleg sandwiches.

                I've never had peanuts. I'm think that's because of possible allergies, but then they have other snacks that say they were prepared in a factory that also processes peanuts. Makes no sense.

                Most recently I flew home for spring break and I came back to school yesterday (Sat). My connection was delayed 1.5 hrs because we couldn't use "our" plane as something that heats something wasn't working and since we were flying somewhere with icy conditions they needed to find another plane.

                A week and a half ago I flew to St. Pete, FL for a conference... that trip was one of the better ones although the conference itself wasn't a very good time. First flight was late and I had to run to connection on arrival and on departure everything was fine if having to wake up 3:30 am to catch a shuttle to the airport doesn't count.

                Flying back to LA was mixed... I couldn't select seats when I bought my ticket and had to sit in the middle to hub, but I got bumped to first into LA. That was really nice... got drinks while people were boarding, hot toasted nuts, dinner with dessert, tablecloth, etc. I get to LAX (cost $200 more to fly to Burbank this particular time) and my suitcase didn't.

                  That's if you get fed at all. They've cut out meals wherever they could.

                    A couple years ago, a friend and I decided to go to Las Vegas to go see someone. It's about a 45 minute flight but the whole time I was sitting next to this man who thought we were going to crash and die. It was horrible I didn't know how to get him to shut up.
