Fucking hell. British Airways indeed. This country is well obsessed with paedophiles.
Yep, and he sued them. They're just the 'Daily Mail' with wings.
If BA tell you they've run out of beers, this is a lie. Tell them, firmly but politely, that you saw the cans in the trolley and ask why they're lying to you. They'll scowl and give in.
BA's ideal customer base:
1) Business travellers, who just wanna unwind with a tomato juice and an inflight mag
2) Families, who fall asleep as soon as they sit down*
(* the dad being the type who pulls his kids' pants down and hand spanks them, while chanting "A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING...AND EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE!" if they leave a tube of toothpaste in the sink)

It's been standard procedure for years to move lone males sitting next to unaccompanied children - not just a one-off thing. Pretty sad really.

A Dissensus seaside trip makes a weird amount of sense, actually.

There are no words harsh enough for me to express my contempt for Ryainair. They must be the basest, most vulgar, grasping, tight-fisted bunch of cunts I've ever had any dealings with. Thirty quid surcharge for taking a bag in hold luggage, per bag, per flight? The same for not booking in online? Fuck off, you shower of pricks. I'm going Eurostar next time, it's expensive and takes ages but at least I'll be able to sit in comfort and not get defeaned by 'UHNOHTHER AHN-TIME FLOIGHT FROM ROYANAIR!!!!!!' at the end.
Jesus. I used to enjoy Christmas.

This is the truth. The last time I flew Singapore Airways, I played Super Nintendo for 8 hours straight. It was amazing.

They're awful. But I don't think they're that abnormal. Last year I took a flight with Iberia - cue 24 hour delay at Barajas, with no apology, because of snow that I could see didn't exist because I looked outside. And the line to complain/get information was about 2 hours long. And then they lost our luggage for three days when we finally got to our destination. I mean, wtf?
Xmas has always been bollocks though. I embrace you, Scrooge.
ryaniair just make up for the complete lack of money you spend by making it a total ordeal, youve gotta go through it to justify a £10 flight to sweden. ryanairs flights are so cheap its like looking through a crack in society and seeing an incomprehensible glimpse at a completly alien sense of "value". its like queing up for a club, go prepared, hand luggage only, deformable bag, screw up your clothes and stuff them in the pockets of your oversized coat when getting on the plane, try and drown out all the j2O adverts and constant offers of bullseye baggies and smokeless cigarettes, and soon enough youll be in berlin...

You see, this is where it falls down: it depends where you're flying. They've got a monopoly on flights from London to where I need to go to see my parents, with the result that I'm paying £260* to go to France for a few days. OK, so it's Christmas, but it's still a hundred quid at other times of year.
*in fact more than this, as I'll need to take an extra bag with me for their presents on the way there, and my presents on the way back - I always travel light whenever possible, but you can't really do that at Christmas...sigh.

Eindhoven airport is still, ultimately, an airport, but landing there from that shiteheap Luton is like entering a different world. (Had a sharp shock after I landed however, as taxis in the Netherlands apparently run on a mixture of saffron and gold dust - 35 euro for a 15-minute journey - fucking bloodsucker...)
Apparently Tel Aviv airport is reckoned to have the tightest security in the world, but it's all done simply by asking quesions. Everyone is asked where they're going, what they're planning to do while they're there and so on, and they discretely take anyone aside whom they think is acting suspiciously or whose story doesn't add up. Meaning they don't have idiotic blanket security measures like confiscating potentially lethal items such as safety razors and nail clippers when you go through security, only to sell new ones to you at ludicrously inflated prices once you're on the other side. But then, measures like this are only ostensibly about 'security' and are primarily about allowing airport shops to rape you in the wallet as efficiently as possible.
