On An Airplane Next To A Fat Guy

I’m sitting in the Admirals Club in CLT right now and there is a FSU fan sitting at the bar complaining about the plight of the Noles. I’m tempted to chime in.

Do it.

So…to check in for AA flight (international, I guess)…one must register with Verifly and input all kinds of data/details. And to get checked in for flight to the DR one must ahead of time complete an electronic customs and immigration form. And scan/upload passports.

Lovely…glad I had a couple of hours to spare.

Hope it actually makes the trip smooth and easy.

 

[Biff Tannen]

Yep.

 

[deacdiggler]

Yeah it’s much easier once that’s done

 

[deaconson]

Clear is bullshit. All of those resources should be forced into making TSA work better instead of allowing a private company to profit off of airport security.

Hmmmm

Anybody flown Lufthansa out of Charlotte to Europe or anywhere else for that matter?

Flew to Paris, connecting in Frankfurt, on Lufthansa several years ago. Very pleasant experience, and service/food seemed better than domestic carriers. We were in cattle class, so the seats/legroom were standard.

Used to fly the Lufthansa CLT to FRA trip a lot. Enjoyed it. Service was always good.

Lufthansa Is good, used them a few times.

Alaska Airlines Grounds Fleet of Boeing 737 Max 9 Jets After Midair ‘Incident’

The plane made an emergency landing at the Portland, Ore., international airport after losing a chunk of its fuselage, according to passengers.

Well that would have been a terrifying flight experience.

FAA has now grounded all 737 MAXs

Again...

 

[BarcaDeac]

That plane was 2 months old

 

[ConnorEl]

So…design problem or production problem or both?

At a certain point consumer confidence in the 737 Max is going to result in them having to mothball all of them.

I'd say TBD...Boeing QA has taken a well deserved beating for years now.

Please let my flight Friday be in different equipment. I really am ready to be home
