This is truly pathetic...that’s what I want to do. Get on an airline run by a bunch of sophomoric clowns.

How classy. Does the CEO of that business feel proud of how his company is being shown to the public? How about shareholders? Employees?

Those really are very attractive rates, but somehow I am picturing passenger seating like on the old slave ships.
