How about making airports more family friendly by arresting mob fighters?
How about making planes safe to fly again. 🤔
> Secretary Duffy announced $1 billion in funding to incentivize more family-friendly resources in airport terminals. <
The United States is a debtor nation. So to be more accurate:
Secretary Duffy announced $1 billion in borrowed money to incentivize more family-friendly resources in airport terminals.
🙁
Driving to the airport.
Parking your car.
Hiking to the terminal.
Checking your luggage.
Going through security screening.
Checking in at the gate.
Waiting for boarding.
Sitting at the gate.
Taxing to the runway.
Shouldn’t take longer than the flight to your destination.
Can airlines and airports pay for all of this?
If he's spending federal money to get exercise equipment and healthy food into airports, he's going in the wrong direction. Spend money to get travelers through the ticketing and security process as quickly as possible with the least invasive searches as possible, and to make sure flights are on time.
Kids young enough to need special spaces shouldn’t be in airports: Keep them at home until they’ve grown up enough to be civilized.
Translation: The cities where these airports are located are turd-world dumps so we need to build more into the airports so travelers do not need to leave the safety of the airport fortress.
How about doing something about all the silly airline fees charged. How they will split up families to make them pay a preferred seat fee for each member. Its stupid and wrong.
I am not opposed to the idea but I don’t see it as a priority or even in the top 100 concerns of the DOT.
Update the antiquated traffic control software. That is family friendly.
I agree with the sentiment.
Don’t agree with the ‘investment’.
Let the industry fix itself instead of dunning the taxpayers and/or printing more fiat for what will just end up in the pockets of grifters.
Seems foolish to me, an overreach, and waste of tax dollars. He should be fired for this.
An airport should fund its own renovations. If anything, help fund improvements to air traffic control systems, communications, and more efficient TSA screening.
Let the private sector do it, just make sure there is adequate seating at the bar/restaurant to catch a bite and beer before the trip or during a layover.
Privatize AMTRAK.
That would make my day.
Casually burning $1 Billion on useless garbage that will cost another $1+ Billion to maintain and dismantle. Provided by Pelosi Construction Company, probably.
Just fix the ATC and computer problems, and streamline/eliminate TSA. Put random air marshalls onboard or let people conceal-carry onboard as volunteers.
Taser or waste people who act out or try to mess with the plane or crew.
Ban people who are a pain in the @$$ from flying for five years.
No playgrounds, no crap for kids, which would always be empty/dirty/broken/dark. A waste of square footage.
Leave travelers alone in their choice of food, cocktails, etc. The 'healthy food while traveling' is an asinine concept. Just leave serious American people alone. This guy doesn't have a lick of sense. We don't want the government telling us what to eat. Anywhere, least of all at the airport.
Most people would agree with a ban on children flying BTW.
That's where most peoples' heads are at... not at giving kids more reasons to fly.
ATTENTION YUPPIES
A FEW DAYS WITHOUT INTENSE EXERCISE WILL NOT KILL YOU.
