Thread: Airlines Fumigating Passengers

It is a way to intimidate people! Tell me that they open up each box in each container on every Container Ship that lands there and spay the content of each! Sorry just another way to show that they can control you! ✈

I can understand the outrage...they should have done a better job informing you of what would happen.

That said, as passengers on airlines we do not have the same rights we might expect in our homes. We are guests, and your choices are to like it or not....and there are less and less options these days, so if you want to travel over seas, you better opt for the first choice.

Domestic flights have more regulations and concerns than ever, International flights have even bigger concerns as they must comply with multiple governments. If you contemplate all the responsibilities airlines have these days compared to 20 years ago, and couple that with the global economy...it is not a surprise (nor is it acceptable) that customer service sucks.

Regarding conspiracy theories and control...I think they have a lot bigger concerns. What I mean is, they (the airlines) are interested in dotting the necessary i's and crossing the necessary t's in the manner they are mandated to do...they could care less about anything other than CYA. Non-compliance can be very costly.

Now if you want to debate the effectiveness of a rule, that is another story....governments unfortunately tend to be extremely good at shutting the gate and triple pad locking it, while the horses walk out the gaping holes in the fences. Laws and sausages...you do not REALLY want to know how either are made.
