my sister rocks

Have to give mad props to my sister who for the past 10 years has been a flight attendant for United Airlines. That means her family ends up reaping the reward.

I've flown to Hawaii, Europe and all over the US for very little over the years.

I flew out to DC and back for under $80 this week and happened to catch first class out.

There have been business class flights overseas where I haven't wanted to get off the plane, I was too comfy.

Flying stand-bye is not for the weak and weary though. Bad weather, cancelled flights, delays, and late arrivals can change the dynamics of getting on a flight in a drop of a hat. I've had to exit an airplane on a few occasions because the paying customer had arrived last minute. Nothing more humiliating than grabbing all your stowed-away luggage and sheepishly walking off in front of a packed flight.

All this say though, my sister has been hookin' me up like crazy and has saved me thousands of dollars over the years.

Seriously, mad props.
