I’d pay extra to talk to a live person without having to repeat “Representative…representative…representative…” to a callbot.

Shouldn’t the punchline be, “Speaking to People Fee”?

I HATE callbots.

There’s a very good reason I fly Korean Air: they don’t charge extra for meals, leg room, baggage, or speaking to a rep (they prefer it if you skip the phone tree and talk to a real person). Yes, the ticket is expensive, but it always includes everything and they’re very helpful. I don’t know what I’d do if I had to fly inside China or the US, I’m too used to being spoiled.
