I'd rather be flying
As long as we're talking about airlines (see below), it's worth mentioning that Zagat has released its latest survey of US domestic and International carriers. Obviously it's no surprise: US carriers sucked across the board, while some foreign carriers (CX, SQ, JL, etc) scored quite highly. The best review--the one that covered most airlines--is the fake sample review provided in the report's key:
A "fly-by-night operation literally as well as figuratively," this "cheapie" charter might suffice "if Greyhound is all booked up," but given planes "older than Moses," seats "salvaged from sunken subway cars" (complete with "subway straps" to accomodate "standing room only crowds" caused by "chronic overooking") and "stale pretzels" flung by "Jurassic"-era flight attendants, critics conclue "I'd rather take a mule"; P.S. "time ot upgrade that web site."
