Air Travel

[Miscellaneous | Link | Print]

Air travel requires a reversion to infantile behavior, or at best to behavior characteristic of elementary school kids. You've got to stay in the seat, you can't go to the bathroom without permission from the captain or the flight attendant, you're served packaged food (if at all) in pouches. How do the airlines convince adults, especially high-powered adult executives who make decisions that affect thousands of people, to sit quietly waiting to use the toilet?
