The exam question ... "how has this forum impacted you when you fly?"
I've been flying in all sorts of aircraft for a lonnnnng time, up front and down the back. I'm not scared of flying, otherwise I wouldn't have got my licence!
But this forum, along with others on PPRuNe, has added additional refinements to what goes on the world of
passenger-moving. Check-in, baggage, on-board service, tips on airlines and booking arrangements, why your meal isn't available, which seats to choose ... it goes on and on.
The strongest basic human instinct is fear, especially fear of uncertainty ... the "Fight or Flight" reaction. Being stuck in that tube for 8 hours or so isn't nice, regardless of which cabin you're in.
I have no basic 'fear' - being born is fatal.
But from reading this Forum, I have less uncertainty when I travel - the stress of the 'unknown' or 'WTF are they doing now?' is much reduced. That makes be a calmer, happier, passenger.
NOW ... WHERE'S MY MEAL?
