Obsessions...Heated Nuts...Full Cans of Soda...
 
I have noticed that we all seem to have certain obsessions that if furfilled make or break our CO flights. To some it is the heated mixed nuts thing (with a sub catagory of ceramic dish/in the bag). Today I saw a post about getting the whole can of soda. As you all know I have this thing about the tri color pasta (NOOOOOOOOO...). So let us put our hair down and admit our obessions...

I only have one obsession, when if comes to flying.

Arriving SAFELY at my destination.

Tomato juice, with a lime twist.

I thinbk I can trump the "hot nuts" thing. How about hot towels?? On 2 consecutive BF flights, GUM-HNL on July 4, and HNL-IAH July 3 (sic), the towels were hot on the outside, but cold on the inside! What makes this remarkable is that there was a change of aircraft (and "airlines") in HNL, so equipment failure was not the reason!'
Those were actually two very bad BF experiences, the FAs were very rushed during the normal services, then disappeared for long times! Getting early start on the holiday, I guess.
So, I want HOT TOWELS!

A dessert that actually tastes good.

How about Business First configuration on all domestic flights of more than two hours?

I have becomed obsessed with bulkhead seats in F/C. Pretty silly, when obviously any leather seat is better than a cloth one, but I've become addicted to the bulkhead. I've had either 1B or 1E on 15 out of my last 16 segments, too.

Not silly at all, it makes more room for my favorite 3a! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Pre-takeoff beverage, ESPECIALLY getting some OJ in the morning.

Sam Adams -- which is one of the few things that is a negative for United (I wish they would offer it.)

Also: getting pre-boarding drink in first )sometimes, sometimes I don't) SO I agree with Brother Jon Toner on this.

Plus: A full can of soda would be appreciated (F-A just has to make ONE trip instead of 2 or 10.)

Dream wish: PEPSI with COKE on ALL airlines.

Gotta have my little space free of intruding godawful perfume smells and snapping gum noises.

Laptop power ports in coach as well as in BusinessFirst on 777's.

Make those long transpacific flights that much more productive and enjoyable.

Ditto on the pre-boarding drink in first, and the full can of beverage (cranberry juice for me).

tartetatin, don't forget to shoo the card shuffling yahoooo-type card players away!

Ling,

I am not clear on your comment - what is your point?
