What makes you think they’re even in the air? Incidentally, the Perfesser should be able to fly, shouldn’t he?

At least they’re being honest about their financial situation. Can’t say that about a good many businesses (or people) these days.

How about the seat back? Sing me that song about original position again.

Nothing wrong with American business and economy that guillotining a few hundred Wall Street types…suddenly, too, with no recourse…would immediately cure.

Been following LIBOR, anybody? Guillotines, I say.

You may be certain that your town, your county, your state, and ALL states…have been lied to and ripped off…funded a school or a hospital? in the last thirty years? the Liars took theirs, you paid the bills…and you’re not even mad when somebody goes into bankruptcy? Wake up.

Honesty in advertising. Refreshing.

I got that message when Braniff went under

This is straight from the headlines. March 12th of this year, South Carolina based, Direct Air stranded hundreds of passengers in Florida and other places when they all of a sudden ceased flying and declared bankruptcy. No warning.The fuel providers had closed the taps on them because of overdue fuel bills.Little or no effort was made by the now defunct airline to assist the stranded passengers.

Don’t they charge like $30 to use that tray table? That’s the problem with this strip today. Airline going bankrupt. Not with the fees they charge for every little thing!

This is being directed to the US of A&&h..es.

I’m surprised he didn’t have to pay for 2 seats!

Thank you for flying USA where we are so far down into debt that we have to climb a trillion dollars to reach flat broke.

I wonder if they still care if the pilot lowers the landing gear and follows the rest of the landing procedures?

You never cared before either but the FAA kept you saying it anyway.

maybe Cosmo flew to Arizona last week, and he didn’t want to fly this time because his arms are tired……

Birdbrains has birds using the airlines today too!

HEY YOU GUYS, ABOUT BIRDS FLYING IN PLANESMaybe when you stop riding in cars, buses and trains (what, you can’t walk?) you’ll have to something to say about birds flying in planes!

Fly the friendly skies of……dis United.

With American Airlines bankruptcy in the news today, the timing of the strip is remarkable.
