Why 80% of ?s one of: ticket cost, flight length, what to do on the plane, I'm scared, I'm only _ years old

Question

Maybe I'm just in a snarky mood today, so please forgive me.

But in the "Air Travel" category, the same old questions get asked every day. I know, I know, "if you don't like it, don't read them" but I honestly enjoy helping people with real, unique questions about aircraft and air travel, and I'm tired of the repetitive stuff filling up the index.

Can anything be done?

Answer 1

It appears that some people are so self-important that they must also post the same question over and over again so it's at the top and EVERYONE can read it. And they also apparantly haven't noticed the "Check Spelling" that's staring them right in the face. Don't forget "can i txt on da plan?"

I'm quite snarky on a daily basis.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Answer 4

You are absolutely right.  After reading the kids questions over and over, it becomes so clear to me why their parents are sending them away!

Heres the deal everyone:  

- There is no such thing as a magic website that will always give everyone the best deals on airfare from every city to any other city.

- To find out the duration of your flight, look at the time your flight leaves and then take a peek at when it lands.  You can even use a calculator for the math.

- What to do on a plane?  There is only so much.  You annoy me when you arent stuck on a plane, so I suggest taking sleeping pills and leaving the poor people who have to sit next to you alone.

- If you are scared, I apologize, but suck it up or dont fly.  The chance of you dying in a plane crash is something like 9 million to 1.  Cross your fingers.

- If you are only 12 years old and are flying for the first time, congrats to you - someone was nice to you and bought you a plane ticket.  If you have a specific question about something you are concerned about, we would be more than happy to answer it to the best of our ability, but we cannot tell you everything about the air travel experience in one answer box.

Sorry.  I might be the snarky one.  :)
