I told my wife, after reading this in the newspaper, that it was yet another reason why I refuse to give the airlines a friggin' penny. She can fly if she likes, after I drop her off at the airport I'll drive to the destination and arrive when I do. Same on the return trip. Or for cross country trips, she can tell me how it was. Bleedin airlines ought to be ashamed.
