Air-pane!

Something I've been griping about for years. It has become too cheap to fly, there are too many flights. Airlines have needed to slash the number of flights and raise rates. Make seats bigger, allow more leg room, bring back the sexiness to the flight experience. The airlines consistently tried to go on the cheap, lower perks, raise the number of flights to the same god damn destination.

From Boston, there are like, 8-10 different flights per day to of all places...freakin Baltimore. Cut the 8-10 flights to 4 on bigger planes.

Well, looks like NYC may be stepping up to the plate and officially limiting the number of flights that can take off in an hour. I hope this passes, and is strictly enforced. I hearted flying back in the 90s, when it wasn't pure hell to deal with sitting on the tarmac in a runway line of 50 planes.
