My travel agent said she’s had too many customers with cancelled flights or had to drive all the way to Charlotte or Atlanta to catch their flights.

She said if you are within about a 12 hour drive then go by car.

Secretary Pete doesn’t know what he is doing. We used to take the airplane way back in the 1960’s and this problem didn’t show up until the past two years.

A friend of mine who was a pilot used to quote a saying: “Time to spare? Go by air!”

You still have a travel agent? I thought that job was killed by online booking.

"Secretary Pete doesn’t know what he is doing."

Once he completely grinds all civil aviation to a halt, he'll boast about totally preventing the possibility of another 9/11.

Fine with me. As an OTR trucker, I was used to that and more (before electronic logs). A 10 hr drive is just an ordinary day.

Once had a meat haul from Storm Lake, IA to the Bay, stopping in SLC, UT for a 45 minute nap. Got a full 24 hrs to sleep and relax. The veggie return had me out of Coachella, CA, to Chicago southside. Stopped for 3 hrs of sleep in Gallup, NM. It helps to have other drivers on the CBs telling interesting stories to keep alert. And every hour or two, stop, trot around the rig a time or two to check things and loosen the legs, and open the lungs.

All natural, no pills. I don’t drink coffee (hate hot drinks), and only resort to iced tea if I think I need a boost.
