A Sign of the Time

None Are Left. Virgin America has gone over to the other side now that it's charging $2 for a headset; no more bottle water for the free taking, and no napkins unless asked - - and you only get one single sheet. All the amenities that I still got to enjoy just 3 months ago are gone.

If You Can't Beat 'Em, Join Them. OK. I can take that. Things are expensive and cost control is vital. If JetBlue, US Airway and other airlines can charge $7 for pillows and blankets among other things, then VA can play the same game. But, what's up with no "hi" and "bye" by the door as you board and leave the plane? Are they not free anymore?


The name of the game: Cut, Cut, Cut.
