I have started telling the flight attendants, Look, I know you have to do this and I don't blame you, but these commercials are really irritating and I wish you would tell management they are irritating passengers. Most FAs agree. This is driving me nuts about USAir, so I'm sending a snail mail letter of complaint. You are invited to do the same.

AS does this quite frequently. Seems like at least 1 out of 3 flights I fly on, the FA's pitch the BofA AS Visa. Surprisingly enough I see a lot of people grab the flyer and start filling the form out. Don't know if they actually turn it in or not...
