I am saddened that the general public have
internalized low expectations for flying. Nowadays the average person simply
expects that flying means putting up with cramped seats, crowded airports, intrusive and slow security checks, surly airline employees, and gouging surcharges for everything. Talk about expecting these to be different-- which they all
were not that many years ago-- and they laugh as if you'd asked for the world on a string.
