No more UK flights for CJ

[cjsmith]

I'll get on a transatlantic plane without carry-on luggage when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

(Or when they pay me the full replacement price of my checked luggage when I board. On the unlikely chance I ever see it again, and on time too, I'll gladly refund the money... minus a modest handling charge. AND they must have at least three decent full-length novels in the passenger cabin for me, as that's how many I'll need.)

This completely screws us, because we have, up until now, tried very hard to fly without checked baggage. Never again, it appears.

I'm in favor of implementing the security technique illustrated in The Fifth Element, where they just knock you out before takeoff, and you wake up at your destination..... :-P

As have I. Checked baggage has a bad habit of not showing up. If it's going to do that I'd rather not bother packing it.

I'd rather be sedated for ten hours than spend it on a plane with no books and no water.
