This is how I feel today...

I want to lock stupid expedia and United Airlines in a room and make them watch this for a few hours.  Then maybe they will get their shit together.  They suck.

April 8, 2010:  And an update from today's Christian Science Monitor.  I love it.

Another passenger, Matt Erickson, sent a text message to his wife after being held for more than four hours, according to the Los Angeles Times.

His message read: "Only in America ... a Qatari diplomat decides to light up a cigarette in the bathroom and then uses his shoe to put it out," Erickson wrote. "He then jokes about it to the guy sitting next to him, who happens to be the freakin' air marshal."

Today in travel history

On this day -- today, 2010 -- Spirit Airlines announced that they will now start charging up to $30 for carry-ons that do not fit under the seat in front of you.  Damn you, Spirit Airlines.  Now everyone will start copying.   Looks like I'm going to have to start using my backpack again.  Looks like I'll be ruining my clothes again, too.  damn you...

Fewer Bags, More Revenue
By CHRISTINE NEGRONI

Airlines in the United States started charging for luggage in 2005 by instituting a fee for passengers with more than one bag to check. Soon, even the first bag wasn’t free. Now, Spirit Airlines says it will charge as much as $30 each way for carry-on bags that are too big to fit under the seat.
