Airport Musings

  • Why is it that I am always either running late to get to an airport to catch a flight or getting there too early?
  • Why did the woman's smile at the boarding counter turn into a frown when she saw my infamous green passport?
  • Why do mothers don't notice how rude and annoying their children are?
  • When did Isreal suddenly become a 'cool' travel destination?
  • Why are Czech Airlines attendents rude and obnoxious?
  • Why did the customs lady in Prague refuse to lend me the pen infront of her so I can sign my entry card to Czech?
  • What was she saying in Czech with a sneer to the guy next to her?
  • Why did the weather turn cold and rainy after I packed for a summer weather?
  • Why did the woman sitting next to me during a direct flight from Toronto to Prague not shower before flying???

New goal in life: Get a private jet.

So in addition to Czech Airlines, it appears that Turkish Airlines and that canadian-airlines-which-shall-not-be-named (:P) all suck. Tell me people, which airlines DO NOT suck?

Singapore Airlines (SIA) doesn't suck... I think British Airways should be ok too, as well as Cathay Pacific...

hey there
here's a single answer for all your questions:

read a book called: "Why The Toast always Lands Butter Side Down: The Science of Murphy's Law"

it's by Richard Robinson

Murphy's Law is basically:
1. Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong
2. Trying to make things better only makes things worse
3. Any attempt to do nothing, so nothing can go worng, will go wrong.
