American Airlines Sucks

I've been saying this for a dozen or so years now. They are consistently late, incompetent, unapologetic, and just generally suck.

For example...

My dad had a flight from Bloomington, IL to Chicago and down to New Orleans. They blew his original flight (2.5 hours late) then said they'd put him on a flight for N.O. that would have him here at 10:30- 6 hours past his sheduled arrival.

This should have been enough to disgust any typical traveller, but AA decided if they're gonna piss on your leg, they're gonna get it really wet. He isn't even leaving Chicago until 12:15 and won't arrive in N.O. until sometime around 2:30 this morning- nearly 12 hours after his 'scheduled' arrival.

Next time, just rent a donkey and get a box of takeout from Popeye's. You'll get there faster and be much better fed.

And here's a pic of Viv:

wellll, there was a tornado that touched down somewhere near Chicago, which means the whole airport came to a hault. Next time Alan will stay away from O'hara!
