1. An American didn’t eat for 6 hours. Holy cow!!! What will they do. I hope when they got to Paris they went immediately for a few baguette infusion. The poster was probably 500-100 pounds overweight like 90% of the US.

2. I have transferred at CDG one or two times every year (absent Covid) for years. It’s not great, mostly for the long trek. But, I’ve never had line issues or others surprise delays. I’m fine with it: always consistently OK. Transfer from 2G (Hop! flights) to 2E isn’t my favorite, but it works. Given my other choice is AMS, I’ll take CDG. Maybe this fall/winter when EES becomes active, AMS might improve. I’m uncertain of how the late 2006 ETIAS implementation will change things.

3. @Ray: OMG.

4. Ahh, the classics. AA’s broken planes; United’s empty overheads while the flight is delayed to load forced-gate checked bags from group 3.

   On the food, hope that meal isn’t anything like the “Denver Signature Dish” burrito that I just pre-ordered. Also, since we all love to complain here, I’ll add, these Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding desserts are just ‘not great.’ I’d need to be starving to enjoy that ‘red velvet’ goop. What happened to the good ole Pie in the Sky?! Those were far better.

   And on CDG, why must the French make things so convoluted; meanwhile, the Dutch can manage a Schengen to non-Schengen transfer in 30-minutes at AMS. I trust KLM with tight connections; I won’t do anything less than 3 hours minimum with Air France at CDG. Yikes. And why does AF nearly always board on-time then have everyone wait on the jet-bridge for an hour. Anyone else experiencing this?

5. I flew first-class on United yesterday from RSW to IAD. The chair had two big sticky pieces of masking tape on it because the tray was broken. I understand that things break, but this aircraft overnighted in EWR the previous night – where it should have been fixed. For the additional price you pay, the amenities should be better. Moreover, the food service consisted of a bag of potato chips. When did first-class decline so badly?

6. @ Gary — At least you will be getting a credit for skipping the Polaris food when they exclude it from Polaris Basic fares.

7. OK, CDG does kinda suck, but if you’re an ADULT who is a Sport Illustrated model/social influencer who breaks into tears at an airport your parents failed when it comes to teaching you basic life skills. Sheesh.

8. The problem is not CDG, the problem is being a narcissistic blond c**t who thinks (and hopes) anybody gives a sh*t about her
   Next she will publish something about her struggles with mental health and/or the poor palestinians and/or how bad ICE is…and blah blah blah
   People like her are a cancer to society
   All these so called “influencers/social media personalities” are the same….
   Just useless

9. the airline industry is eating itself to fund executive bonuses.

10. @ Doug — Geez, have some coffee or something.

11. @Doug — Hold your horses, that’s a lotta ‘hate’ for one short comment. Wasn’t expecting there to be an anti-blond contingent out there. Learn somethin’ new every day here. But also, could you please, like, calm down, and maybe, also, send a few insults my way? Some of us ‘get off’ on it… *blushing*

12. @gene and 1990
    I don’t drink coffee but thank for the suggestion
    I have no reason to insult you
    Tell me if what I said about blondie is wrong please
    If she wasn’t that hot and/or 30 lbs heavier nobody would give a crap
    And if gary had not published her “meltdown” none of us wouldn’t know she even exists
