Turbulence is my favorite part because of the adrenaline rush. Every time I fly and am forced to remove my shoes, I’m grateful Richard Reid is not known as the Underwear Bomber.
When the pilot triumphantly announces that the flight arrived 30 minutes early! Then we sit on the runway for 45 minutes as the arrival gate is occupied by a plane running late.

… learning at length about the various opinions my seat-mate holds…
… four-hour layovers, especially when the direct flight would have been two hours…
…sprinting to make a connecting flight…
One other thing O.J. doesn’t have to worry about any more.
His main concern now is which asbestos suit goes best with Bruno Magli shoes.
A successful landing.
… watching the person in front of me trying to stuff three suitcases full of stuff into one bag to avoid the checked-baggage fee…
It’s so inevitable, there is no reason for them even to have those little kiosks to measure your carry-on.
Sitting between two people who have realized that since no one likes them anyway, they can save a lot of money on deodorant.
Chicken dinners on metal trays with the logo “Braniff” stamped into them.
Or “C.S.A.”
(Confederate States of America)
First class on Spirit!
Corroboration that I have operated my seat belt correctly for decades
Having an aisle seat, and the center and window seats are occupied by people who seemingly have 43 bladders each.

not flying in a Boeing plane.
Pterodactyl Airlines looking better and better
Stewardesses. Not Flight Attendants; Stewardesses.
When the pilot triumphantly announces that the flight arrived 30 minutes early! Then we sit on the runway for 45 minutes as the arrival gate is occupied by a plane running late.
Asking TSA for an 8×10 of my picture. They are never amused.
… driving instead.
PS: RIP Toonces
Landing anywhere outside of Washington state.
…calling random people Shirley.
The knowledge that, for at least a little while, I don’t have to worry about earthquakes.
Speaking of air travel….

Newhart is never not funny.
That sense of relief that William Shatner or Jon Lithgow are not fellow passengers.
Being comfortable knowing that since they “secured the cockpits” that the TSA is completely superfluous!
It’s really a shame they don’t reassign them to the southern border.
