Ah yes

The free screaming baby in the row behind upgrade.

The last dozen or so flights I seem to have been 'upgraded'

I've got to the point I'm able to blank it out, I know it's not
the babys fault, it can't clear it's ears on climb / descent so
there's not a lot anyone can do....

The flight back from Cancun to Newark last year though was a a
different matter.

4hrs next to a New Joysey New York staunch Republican cabbie...

with some err.... interesting political views.

Somehow that turned into a really really long flight, he was quite surprised
that a Brit knew about Kent State and Bull Connor...

He wasn't rude, just persistantly annoying and opinionated even
diving into a book didn't work!
