Airlines: Customer Service? Not a Chance

     Well, fellow traveler, you have read that more passengers are buying tickets than just a few weeks ago.  Perhaps the flying public is adapting to current conditions.  However, the airlines are continuing their intense efforts to abuse all passengers as they try to adjust to reduced schedules and a plethora of misinformation put out by the scoundrels in airlines Offices of Misinformation.  As an example, if a passenger feels sick and does not want to fly with the ticket already purchased, he can cancel the ticket without a penalty.  However, he must then rebook a flight at a later date at a new price, usually considerably HIGHER than before.  This policy stimulates the passenger to forego a change and fly while sick, which increases the chances of spreading whatever disease or condition suggested a change in the first place.
     Now what about onboard conditions?  Airlines say they will clean the aircraft in a deep cleaning method to contain the virus.  They also tout the filtration systems on board the aircraft which is in constant circulation and mixed with fresh(?) incoming air.   Hmmmm.   And then, the airlines say they will limit numbers of passengers on flights to increase social distancing.  Ha, ha, ha.   We have seen the photos of aircraft interiors as passengers board-they are almost full.   Liars all.  Do not believe what the corporate scoundrels tell you-they lie, lie, lie, and lie some more.  United has a new CEO, but old Oscar "Bum Heart" Munoz is still chairman, and his policies will continue to guide this most ridiculous airline whose stock has been most volatile over the last 5 months.  United has justbaccepted a $1.5 billions dollar bailout loan from the US Treasury to keep flying through September(keep employees on payroll).
      NOw you are on board.  Hungry?  Better bring a sammie.  Thirsty?  Don't drink the hand sanitizer, but better bring a few shots of rum in a 1 oz. plastic container.  Feeling like using the lavatory?   BEWARE.  Wear that mask inside the miniature coffin-sized toilet.  THis is the site of the greatest danger with flying today.  Unless passengers follow the most arduous routines while inside the toilet,  they will be most vulnerable to airborne virus particles.  They will be spread by the flushing action of the mechanism which spews water droplets among other nasty items: germs/viri.
The air exchange inside is minimal and the lack of space is an added drawback.  So?  Hold it!  That's right.  Hold it-it could save your life.   The fuselage crammed with hundreds of passengers seated w/i inches of one another is a flying petri dish of incubating germs. 
     Mayor of Tahoma recommendation:  DRIVE YOURSELF TO THAT DESTINATION.  The hell with United, American, Delta, and Southwest Airlines.   They don't deserve your money or your life.
