I'll be going to AZ as well, in September. I've booked my flights via. Travelocity, and so far since I've book my flights (about 3 months ago), my flight times have changed like 4 times lol. I don't even know where I'll be seating, they did not give me a map lay-out of the plane like they usually do with my seat assignment. :(

The problem is that the bathrooms are in the back of the plane. So for the whole flight, he will be hearing; 'Excuse me.'

Ha!! And at 28,800 beats per hour you should remember to look down quickly and you should be able to see at least 16 more beats than the pilot with his GMT.

All dark humor aside have a good trip.

I actually don't mind the back for that reason - you're nearer to the bathroom.

If there's one consolation, the back of the plane is the safest place to be. That's where they put the black boxes.

I am going to need some GOOD entertainment for these flights! Don't think the two books I picked up are going to be enough.... "It's OKAY TO BE THE BOSS" & "The EXCEPTIONAL PRESENTER"

Sometimes the stewardess gives the passengers in the last row better treatment because they feel sorry for them. Let's hope that you get special treatment if you have to be in the rear of the plane!!

You know, it does suck in one sort. But shift your priorities a bit and concentrate on the fact that you get to your destination safely-you are very blessed compared to many recent people that would have been happy to be in the last row and have a safe flight. I try that stuff when I am super pissed at something.

Stop BS'ing Frankie guys......

In reality, the flight will be packed with people waiting in line to urinate and defecate several feet away from him for many hours in a row.
