Dear Barbara,
I sympathize with you as I just completed the absolutely worst flight ever on an AA asset. Heat was just about intolerable, and what was I told "it's summer time". Okay, I must look stupid if they think I'm going to believe it's a "summertime" temperature at 36,000'. Good grief! I've been on many summertime flights and, yes, it's hot on the ground, but never at altitude before. I guess that global warming thingy is far worse than I thought...it extends all the way up to 36,000'.
And for you who want to make derogatory comments about those of us who are unhappy and have found a way to express our unhappiness...feel free! If you enjoy traveling on the commercial equivalent of a poorly equipped troop carrier and paying big bucks for it that's your business and it's mine if I don't. And while I'm at it, it's sooo chinzy, the $2.00 for a bottle of water (and you'll need it with the heat) and $15.00 to check a bag.
We all remember the airlines sad stories when oil was $150 a barrel, but it's less than half of that now. I guess AA is still paying that much, huh? It wouldn't surprise me, if they buy fuel like they sell service it's a given. AA, the old grey mare, she sure ain't what she used to be.
