On a US domestic Flight

I find myself flying again, and it never ceases to amaze me how the mighty have fallen. On my US Airways flight the once free pretzels they gave as snacks are not there anymore. You can buy a snack box that has “Premium” snacks in it for $7.00. I’m surprised they still give you something to drink for free. Thankfully this time around i picked up a decent deli sandwich before boarding the plane. The last time around I forgot to do that and ended up buying one of the gourmet inspired “Hot” sandwiches. It was one of the driest, blandest, and worse tasting sandwich ever. it was not even HOT.

I miss flying airlines like Malaysian, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Sri Lankan Airlines and the like where you actually looked forward to the food and its FREE. Virgin Atlantic now flies domestic routes in the US under the local brand of Virgin America and they provide you a nice free meal and snacks for local domestic flights while still being competitive with the other US airlines, so why cant they?

    '…Curiosity killed the cat…' It’s a good thing I’m not a cat. If I were to akin myself to a representative of the animal kingdom a monkey would be more my type :-)
