NYC Area Airport Security Easier For Seniors |
|
|
|
TSA has eased the requirements for air travelers in New York area airports over age 75. No longer will they need to take off shoes, belts and jackets as they go through John F. Kennedy, La Guardia and Newark Liberty.
We can assume that if no elderly terrorists are detected at other U.S. airports, the new regulations will soon also apply throughout the country.

UAL: Get your little butt back in line, kid! |
|
|
|
Just when you thought airlines couldn’t come up with another scheme to make flying more miserable, United Airlines has done it.
UAL officials recently took a few moments away from drowning kittens and pulling puppy tails. Pleased with themselves, they announced that the privilege of early boarding for families with small children is over. They’ll now have to wait in line with the rest of coach passengers.
With airlines always finding reasons to earn extra bucks, some also charge for families who want to sit together in the cheap seats.
Of course, the new rules don’t apply if the family is willing to pay 4 or 5 times the coach price to sit in first class with the two-percenters. Then, as they board, they can also sneer at the peasants and mingle with the other rich people and government officials flying to Vegas conventions.
