    Post covid means my experience can't help you. I hear they serve food in plastic wrap now....like a picnic or some ****. Also one of my associates in Germany told me he was served champaign in a clear plastic cup.....plastic my dude.

    I'd definitely check anyone's post covid situation before I purchased if I was you. Everyone's using covid as an excuse to deliver a ****tier product at the same or higher rate.

    So if you get stories here or check youtube and such, pay attention to dates. Make sure your info is current because my experience in 2016 is very very different from what I'm hearing these days. Could just be being told stories though too. I don't know how I'd react to a picnic lunch complete with plastic cups.

    Not to sound elitist, I am fine to drink from plastic and eat a wrapped lunch, it's just when you pay so much you expect a bit more.

      As a matter of principle I refuse to fly first class... Not that I could afford to do so regularly. I think airlines have been fcking the rest of us for years... And they are doing things that make people so uncomfortable that people are literally snapping.

      The solution according to the Stewardess' is to throw people longer in the slammer... I don't agree. Seats used to fit, people used to get a meal, refreshment... Today? they nickel and dime you, the seats are so small, that a big person suffers... its outrageous. I could not fly in the front knowing that others are being so horridly treated. I might go up for an upgrade, but would not go out of my way to support this system because of where it has gotten us.

        You almost never truly get what you pay for at a fair price. If you want something good, it will cost you a lot lol. Thousands of dollars for drinks and an average meal? Never!! I try to avoid flying at all costs these days... and screw Amtrak as well... Of course now with gas... what can ya do? I used to go on Priceline and buy the cheapest flights, looks like I will have to go back to doing so...

          I came to the same conclusion.

          I live in Florida. The world can come to me. Folks in business act like they don't bring their families here on vacation and **** until you call them out for it.

            When it comes to beaches, no comparison with California! Florida Rules. The ocean water is so warm I had to do a double take, thought someone had pissed in the pool! I really enjoyed the few times I was in Florida.

                    Again, you can’t even come up with even one racist post I’ve ever made. You on the other hand, are widely accepted as the most racist poster on NSB.
