1. I have no relatives employed by any airline. My neighbor whom I am casually acquainted with is a flight attendant for US Air. I am friendly and on a "first-name" basis with the airport staff where I fly from. I have contacts at the two airlines I fly frequently because I spend a considerable amount of money flying on them and they value my input and feedback as a customer. Does that make me a "sympathizer?" I'm just able to see from a broader perspective than most. I'd estimate that about 90% of the "complaints" I see on this board and hear about in my travels are not legitimate. Most of the time they are the fault of the passenger who tries to lay blame with the airline. Sometimes it is just downright petty bull$#?!.
2. If you can't operate an airline check-in kiosk then you need to have your driver's license revoked. You must not own or manage a business. The reason for the kiosks is to offer a self-service option. What would be the point of paying someone to walk the floor just to be at the beck and call of dimwits who can't figure out how to operate a kiosk which is no more complicated than an ATM.
3. Just how old, or young, do you think I am?
4. Fly Southwest. Oh, wait. They have self-service kiosks too. Guess you're out of luck. Go greyhound!
