Gotta love the Airlines...

I am back from Belize (it was wonderful). I am working on putting together a post along with photos from the trip but in the meantime I came across something that I had to share. Seeing as how I have been traveling a lot over the past several years, I have become very aquainted with all of the airlines and their bullshit rules and fees. There are fees for everything now... checked bags, exit row seats, snacks, beverages, etc. It has become such a joke. Recently, I used the USAirways frequent flyer miles that I had accumulated over the years for airline tickets to Grand Cayman and still had to pay over $150 in fees. Even worse, that $150 in fees doesn't even include my checked luggage. Since when does a free ticket cost over $150?? Shame on you USAirways, now you know why I have switched to Southwest! :-)

Anyway, I was doing a bit of light surfing when I came upon this article on The Onion. It is hysterical. For all of you that travel often... enjoy!
