Two of my friends just retired from United. One flew the 777 Out of Newark,to Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai. In 14 years he never had one problem, not one fight not one unruly passenger. My other friend retiredFour months ago 737 out of Newark he calls them flying city buses.He’s had his fair share of issues, he says the passengers today are F-n pigs leave the garbage on the airplane floor. We get together once a month bunch of pilots out of Newark, the stories are hilarious! Charge 400 bucks to go to Florida one way and see how this will all change. Cheap flights cheap people.
the airlines asked for that though - cheap no frills flights where you pay for everything beyond a seat, packed in more like cattle than passengers.
I phuggin hate flying, especially since I remember what it was like before deregulation.
