I'm a deaf traveler... Just passed the Platinum level yesterday, now 75,009 miles, elite plus and all that.

I've noticed that i get upgraded quite a bit into first class. That was a question I had a while back, however, the legs that I fly the most, EWR-IAH-ZLO or BWI-IAH-ZLO, or sometimes EWR-MEX-ZLO, the first leg, I get upgraded pretty much every time.

I've flown a lot (obviously) and have always wondered if it was possible for them to turn on the captions on the tv's that they have in 1st class. They do hand out those head-phones and all that, free in 1st, but i bleieve you pay for it in economy. I've never paid for them, but always wondered if it was possible for them to turn on captions to enhance the experience for us?

Maybe someone from the company is reading here... (recently saw an article in the WashPost of someone who works for CO and his job is to monitor these boards. :-)
