positive flying experience
Since most people talk about their negative flying experiences, I thought I'd say something positive.
1. Stay at the airport hotel when you have an early morning flight on christmas eve morning.
2. Get enraged that room service has the gall to keep the tip and total spaces on the bill blank. Don�t tip room service. Gouging bastards.
3. If you don�t get to the airport two hours before your *domestic* flight leaves, especially with a high terror alert, you�re a moron. You don�t deserve to go home for xmas.
4. electronic ticket check-in *kicks ass*. Use it.
They had a line herder for the security check-in which immensely improved and streamlined the process. I give the flight out to L.A. experience an A.
Here's a picture of me and my mom hugging hello at the airport. The non-blogging husband is behind us. I have no idea who the person in the foreground is.

Clue-ments:
Don't tell everyone else about electronic check-in. It's mine all mine.
I don't understand your room service comment. Do you think that you should never tip for room service? I think you should. They brought your food up to your room... and in some places they bring it in and set up a table etc. You tip a bell boy for bringing your bags up... why is the food different? I think the fact that they left the bill blank is nice. You can now tip them through your credit card/room bill instead of looking around for cashola.

When there is a 20% service charge on room service, I don't believe in tipping.
