“Flying first class, up in the sky; Popping champagne, living the life …” - Fergie, Glamorous
On Friday I’ll be flying business class from Brussels to sweet home Chicago. I’ve flown business class a few times and each time is exciting. Of course I imagine that the people around me wonder who I am, where I come from, how much money is in my pocket, and why I’m travelling in business. I even imagine that I might find myself another business-class flyer with whom I might share some stories or more. Of course, all dreaming is in good fantastical fun.
Or is it?
Today I came across a pretty enjoyable web site called “Man of the House.” I’m not sure how I reached it, but I read more than a handful of articles, and one titled “So You Think You Can Pick Up Women on Airplanes? Part 2” inspired this post.
It’s a rather whimsical article designed to encourage men to look & play the part of a on-flight Romeo. After reading the article, I can say that I’ve recognised these signs before, though I wasn’t necessarily the beneficiary. This all goes to say that yes, if you’re dressed nicely, look clean, are friendly and demonstrate that you’re not frugal, people will take note.
And oh, one more thing: that girl in 14E? She’s sitting in 6A this Friday …
