I was traveling to Dallas for Christmas one year, and yeah, it was a zoo. Had a long layover, and was sitting at a gate passing time cause it was vacant at the time. A couple of hours go by, and i move to get in line at my gate and i cant find my freaking wallet that has my license credentials to board the flight. Full panic. I went back to the gate where i was chilling and nothing. It was full of people now so I am screwed for sure. So now I am trying to call the pd to file a report, totally freaking out, and I had put my name in at the lost and found. About 30 minutes go by and my vacation everything is screwed. Call comes in over the PA. For “my name” to go to gate whatever it was. I get there and they had me describe what I lost and the contents, and they had the wallet. An awesome couple from Milwaukee had the Christmas spirit and turned it in. All the cash was still there too. There is a Santa Claus.

I lost my passport in the Bangkok airport. That was fun.

I went to an information booth and they didn't have it. I asked if they could call around. They said no one had it. Finally at the last minute I spotted another information booth. Walked up and it was sitting right on their desk. I had to sprint like a mile and just barely made the flight.

Crazy, I literaly met the couple and thanked them. Not a lot positive I can say about Milwaukee, but those folks represented Wisconsin well.

The United Club was rather full last Tuesday when I was coming back from Cozumel but it was SOOOOOOOOOO much better than being out in the terminal. It makes 3-4 hour layovers SOOOOO much nicer.

I don't understand CLEAR either. Somehow they can afford to pay 5+ people to mostly just stand around at every security checkpoint in the US, and occasionally escort someone to the front of the line. How does that make money?

Relatedly, I just signed up for Southwest's credit card to take advantage of the free companion pass for a year deal. Again, I don't love the airline, but I'm pretty sure we can get over $1k in value for that this year. Not bad for a net $0 annual fee (I make use of the credits).

The last two flights on American Airlines, including yesterday, the flight attendants were pushing hard to sign up for the AA credit card and were offering 60,000 bonus miles and a bunch of other perks.

They also had free bags for a period and 1 set of RT tickets if you charge anything within the first month, even a cup of coffee.

I can see how flying a lot can be exhausting.
Had a friend that flew every Mon to chicago, stayed the week, came home Fri. ugh.

Other than that----people. Anxious people.
you are zone 5-get the **** out of the way for those of us that are zone one. Watched a couple stand up, block everyone, the whole plane filled up, they were almost the last to board. What did they gain?

Never have had a nutcase go crazy-it is just a matter of time.

I always get on the plane last. People always try to hurry to get on the plane first as if they are getting something extra to get on first. That’s just another 20-30 minutes to be crammed on a plane with a bunch of random people.

I’ve been living that life the last 4 1/2 years. 2-3 round trip flights to godforsaken Cleveland. The flights are short(2 hours), cheap($50-60 roundtrip) and direct which makes it a lot easier. I never travel with anything more than a small backpack and I’ve had TSA precheck the whole time, which minimizes my time at the airport. It’s definitely gotten old over the years and I dread my time in Ohio, but the job is worth it. Hopefully this shit will be over this year and I can be home full-time.

I haven’t had too much drama on my flights, which is small miracle considering most of my flights are with Frontier and Spirit. The Frontier staff at the gates are assholes about bag sizes and are often harassing passengers to get them to pay extra bag fees for their carry on bags. There’s a lot of little hacks I’ve learned over the years to minimize the nuisances and make everything much smoother.

I flew a decent amount for a few years, but had optional flights home every 2 weeks domestically and every month internationally... rarely used them within the US and never used them when I flew overseas.

Some did what you describe, fly out Sunday night and back every Friday. Idiots don't really stress me out for more than the few seconds it takes to shove through a crowd or wait 5 days for someone to get off the plane, but I'd just think it's a colossal waste of time flying so much for work.... and while I've rarely had to deal with delays and so forth, obviously the more you fly, the more you're going to deal with bad weather and other delays, short or missed layovers, etc.

It's definitely a practice in patience though and I'm more laid back about the stupid shit people do now.

I think everyone should just wait to be last to board.

I do that when I am in the last boarding group. Wait until they are ready to close the door.
