Air travel alert high: U.S. suspects al Qaeda ties

[Steeltwo]

There's nothing south of here to fly into that would be worth jacking a plane for. Dont worry unless you're flying near a real city.
sears tower, st louie arch, Treasure Island :-D

[Steeltwo]

I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about getting attacked on the flight down there
as stated by s2kcracka, you have a better chance of a car going thru your house with a great white in the trunk.

also, you're(if I remember correctly) a skinny white girl.
you = not a threat

[Tauni]

Brandon- you aren't my mommy....

Steeltwo- obviously I'm no threat. What I meant was I would be worried about someone hi-jacking my plane.

[Kracka]

Why would anybody hijack a plane flying to TX? No matter that, security is very tight as proved by these people getting CAUGHT! Nothing bad happened, its still FAR safer to fly than it is to drive all things considered.

And less expensive. My mom got the plane ticket for only $94. Does this have anything to do with the recent events?

[DoughtCom]

holy crap $94 round trip? Is that to DFW? I need to visit my parents soon.

Tauni doesn't know it yet, but that $94 ticket is for Greyhound. :D

[Tauni]

No no, thats a one way. But the other ones, including connecting flights were close to $400-500. Granted, my flight leaves at 6 am. But still. $94 is a good price.

Curt, I would be to scared to set foot on a cross country greyhound, and I don't think my mom would ever allow it. LOL

yes

ticket prices dropped a little bit.

also because your ticket is a one way, you'll get pulled to the side and searched, shoes off and all.
