was reading the Seattle Times this morning and there was an article about US Airways plan to lighten its load by removing its in-flight entertainment system to save on fuel. removing it would decrease the weight of the plane by 500 pounds thus saving around $10million a year.
moreso the article gave out suggestions albeit useless ones on how to have a lighter load for the plane. (from kristin jackson, seattle times travel staff)
- Ban all food and drink on the plane - great idea! reducing our workload by 70%.
- Get rid of all the seatbacks. Instead, use ottomans with seatbelts. - i was laughing so hard at this.
- Take out the seats completely and turn plane cabins into standing-room only moshpits. - mrt up in the air!
- Passengers pay by the pound of their own weight. - anorexics will rule air travel!
- All bladders must be empty; go-before-you-go will be mandatory at special jetway restrooms.
- Headphones will be provided: however, for one ear only- your choice of ear ( at least you'd get to choose an ear.)
- Want to read? No hardbacks permitted; paperbacks must be less than 100 pages.
- No sugar or cream with coffee, no ice, no stir sticks, no napkins. Wipe your mouths on your sleeves. - i should probably suggest this to the company.
- Dump the co-pilot on each flight. God is our co-pilot.
