5. Now that she's publicly complained, she'll be on the No-Fly List.
Read the rest of the story at the original link. It gets even worse. I used to fly at least once a month - but since I'm retired, (and my retirement savings got eaten by Bush's economic melt-down), it's just once a year to visit one of my kids. So, I'm flying over the Labor Day weekend and dreading the experience. And the last two times I flew there (Kansas City) the airline sent my luggage to other airports.
