Reminds me when I was flying US Air (when it was aligned with United sometime in 2008). Flying from Nassau (Bahamas) to SAN via Philadelphia to be told by the Iounge agents at the PHL Ckub lounge on the return to SAN my ten year old son and I could not enter the lounge because flights from the Bahanas were not international flights. I questioned this to be told that flights from the Bahamas were a domestic flight. I commented I thought the news of the occupation by the US would be a surprise to the Bahamaian government, especially as I had needed my passport to enter and leave the country. My ten year old asked me why Anericans were so ignorant about geography. This thread just reinforces my views on the US education system.
