It's the same with the airlines. When they went smoke-free, smokers stopped flying. Now that the airlines are in dire straights, why don't they have the smoking sections back on the planes. This would help them out tremendously.It always amazed me to see people go back into the smoking section years ago to take a puff. When asked why they didn't reserve a seat in the smoking section, they said they couldn't stand to be around all the smoke!
I know if they brought smoking back to airplanes, I would drive instead.
