This was a treat to read.<br />I fly two or three times a year, but usually short trips to another state. In the past, I have waited on an aircraft, sitting on the tarmac, with two teens and a nine year old for three (plus) hours. That felt like a twelve hour flight!Michele K.

I was so fortunate to be able to use frequent flier miles to upgrade to business class. That made it bearable.<br />Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05061067970781919577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-27944625957212612082014-09-09T10:08:37.186-04:002014-09-09T10:08:37.186-04:00Thank you for this!
