IMO US airports are the last place that any person would want to misbehave.

I started flying when the economy airlines helped make things go down hill. Still, I generally didn't have any problem putting up with cramped seats, cancelled/delayed flights, etc. Yes, it is 120 years later, but I still have a sense of wonder that a man can enter a metal tube, and be across the country the same day by flying in the sky. I do bring reading and snacks.

Agreed. One smart tip for those arriving at an airport for a flight...don't arrive drunk and don't drink while you're there. It's almost always drunks who wind up in handcuffs at an airport. And for that matter don't drink *during* your flight...unless you want to be greeted by police on arrival.

As for the wonders of flight...I've done some flying in my day and I still feel like a kid when aloft. Among my most vivid memories is the flight we took from Johannesburg to Rio and while flying over Namibia I could clearly see the sands of the Namib Desert meeting the green,tropical,waters of the South Atlantic. I got a great picture of it and I still have it today.
