Thanks so much for the link love!!!
Great post!
Seriously, the prices of in-flight wifi are out of control!! But, then I realize that i’m in a metal tube, flying 500mph, 5 miles in the air, reading a website authored by a runner in S Korea. Amazing…. still, so freaking expensive…. and yet I pay it anyway!!
Also, the friendliest cities / meanest cities list totally made sense. Lots of southern friendly cities (as well as super rural northern ones in MT and VT),
In general, I am surprised when people complain about airline prices. They are really quite reasonable when you think about how amazing it is to travel thousands of miles in a few hours.
