But you know - right now I agree with him. These imgainary fees [wild as they may seem], do not exist - YET! But who knows?! I heard this AM on Good Day they may start charging you by your weight as well [which I fail to see how they could as that would lead to major discrimination lawsuits]. But the pay toilet? Yeah I could see the Airlines doing that. I mean, you are a captive aren't you? And when you have to go, well not like you can pull over and find a bush when you are 30,000 feet up! So pony up the change or do the potty dance in your seat. Nausea Tax - another captive issue, and again not like you can pull over to toss the cookies or lean out the window. Bad enough when you have to toss you have to try and aim into a little paper bag for everyone to see, let alone smell! Oxygen tax - now that would be mean but well they need the cash right? Don't pony up and you start to go down, well you get the picture. Read the article - amusing but makes you think doesn't it? I mean AA and the like are trying to nickel and dime us NOW, imagine if they see this. The mind reels!!! And who knew there was an Antler tax?!

One that I would wholeheartedly support would be an "intestinal emissions" fee.....

they would have made a fortune off the guy that was next to me on my last flight from home from Alaska....9 freakin hours of toxic fumes.....geesh....

I had one of those bags handy....but thankfully I didn't need it....

I did however try to pry open that little door where the oxygen mask was.....didn't work....

gag......

Mabye they could cut us some slack and offer a free "potty pass" with the purchase of five or more beverages.....

or mabye they could add some options to the frequent flier mile packages....one extra flush for every 20 miles.....

an ingenious person would use an empty toliet paper roll to prop the door open....

hahahahahahahahaha!!!!

'Listen my little flight attendant: you just don't GET it do you? We are 6 hours into a 12 hour flight to Austrailia, I have had 7 beers! The cork is gonna pop and unless you get me in the loo NOW, it will not be pretty!!'

ok...whatcha do in that situation is ummm....what I would call "creative disposal".....just be really careful and aim well....and be discreet....bribe the person next to you to keep quiet....

then call the flight attendant back over....and send the "beer" back....tell her it tastes "funny" and it's a little umm......"flat".....

If she argues with you...just tell her to taste it for herself......(insert snide little wink here)......

ted - FAR easier for guys to do that than I!!! You can write you name in the snow - you have control and aim. I however, yeah no ; ) But great idea if I were a bloke : )

perhaps....you could be the first to market a new device for women...."the flight funnel"....

You could get that "Billy Mays" guy to hawk it for you on TV...."only 19.95....BUT WAIT...if you call right now I'll double the order....so you get TWO flight funnels and we'll in throw in a the new flight wipe at no additional charge".....

ROFL!!!! Dude you are TOO funny! People are looking at me weird because you have me on the floor in the office [yeah I know how it sounds but whatever]. You know I bet I could get rich off that! Could come in handy all the time, like when you just gotta go and the dang cleaning woman is cleaning the restroom, right before you leave for the day....... the possibilities are ENDLESS!! I'll share with you because it was your idea :-D

yeah....like next time at a crowded club...."ya know...that line for the ladies room is just too long"...... you fumble around in your purse for your flight funnel....next thing ya know....you're standing proudly at the urinal in the mens room....next to an astonished guy named "Bill" or something....talk about "possibilities"....

*lol* Please when the line is too long I just walk into the mens room - they have stalls too. Plus the startled look of the faces is always fun 'Whoopsie there sparky, keep an eye on yourself' O-: )

Jun 5, 2008 | 11:23 AM

well....you are braver than me.....most of those stalls are ummm.....well lets just say I wouldn't be "takin a seat" in there......

I'm assuming this would require the use of one of those "hovering" moves that women seldom speak of....

geez....am I TRYING to get this blog red-flagged???....who knows...

If the potty thing goes "through", so to speak, I am going to start carrying a hundred catheters on board and offering catheterization say for.... 5 bucks a pop (plus equipment charges). No need to use the restroom unless ya gotta poo! Well, ok, I'll charge extra for the EXTRA LARGE catheter bags, recommended for those who consume 5 or more beers per flight (Ted???)

5?........surely you jest har har har....Ted's a lightweight.....after 5...I'd be passed out on your shoulder....and possibly drooling....how much ya gonna charge me for that?.....a fiver for a "bib"....and a dry cleaning bill mabye?....
illusionsssss read my blog
Jun 5, 2008 | 12:14 PM

Bib is 10 bucks, dry cleaning bill 40.00 per piece of clothing drooled upon.

Hovering move? Nah if I wanna peek I am just gonna stare - why be subtle? ; ) and you mentioned being a lightweight before. I used to love customers like you when I bartended - the stories I could tell :-x

illusionsssss - ROFL!!!! You know some might just get into that ; )

Yeah, for those that also use catheterization as "entertainment", there will be a $100.00 entertainment surcharge (and trust me, I will "know".)
