that or "your emergency oxygen masks are $10 and $15 for every 30 seconds or oxygen. you can prepay a full tank now for $100 or when the time comes you will have to pay by the 30 second timer, but please note that prices are subject to change during that time"
a guy i was sitting next to on a recent flight (he was old) was telling me how he misses the times when air travel was a luxury rather than a mass transit system. people were polite, meals were nice but the prices were higher but they were worth it.
i keep thinking tho people these days pretty much HAVE to fly, so why not jack up the rates even more. sure people are going to bitch but they will have to pay for it. id rather pay $10 or $20 more per ticket than have to worry when im boarding the plane "shit, do i have $2 to buy a drink on the 5 hour plane ride?"
