I have never regretted an early am flight. Its either napping thro the wait and flight time, or drinking all morning and sleeping thro the rest of the day after landing.
Now, I have never travelled for work and I could imagine that might change the experience.
8am flight? I'm a cheapskate and most of mine are 6am or so
ya 8am flights are insane, too early to wake early for and too late to stay up until you board.
4am flights are the best cheapskate ones.
I dither; sometimes I think: why not a few hours earlier if it saves me a few credits, and suffer through the day (getting up so early it's basically night, and the commute to the airport always takes longer than calculated), sometimes I remember and, well, don't try to save a few credits.
Me and my mates back in our early twenties getting posted: Here's a good idea, we're flying out at 0500 so why don't we just stay up partying and go directly to the airport?
Narrator: It was not, in fact, a good idea.
Flying is so bad now if you don't book a flight at the ass crack of dawn you're basically guaranteed to get delayed so I always bite the bullet and book as early as possible!
They still find a way to delay the first flight out. You know gotta start the day of right.
I used to fly over 400K miles per year. Now I avoid it like the plague. It's truly gotten terrible. It started with the checked baggage fees and has only gone downhill from there.
Wow, how much carbon dioxide is that?
Less than the billionaires have used up this year alone
Likely a lot less than somebody sitting at an office asking AI a few questions a day.
No
Like, not even close.
Why would you book a 8am flight to go fuck yourself? You can do that at home.
I was forced into an 8am flight recently and I thought “At least no one will be at the airport so early and I can just breeze through TSA.” Most packed I’ve ever seen it. What’s wrong with people?
Cheaper flights
In the year 2025, the backwards time machine still won't have arrived.
I'm not so sure, might arrive as everything else is going bassackwards with the regressives out of control in Washington. (And Tejas and Floriduh and...)
So, in the year 2025, the regressive time machine will have arrived?
I think they are aiming for 1625
