AA does suck, though when we took AA to Mexico my salesman friend made friends with the flight attendant and he put us in first class on the return trip FTW!

Did your salesman friend then become BFs with the flight attendant?

I pack my clothes in my ski bag when I fly, saves me an extra bag and it protects my skis from baggage handlers.

Well, the flight attendant was gay, but in a long term relationship.

He was really cool. We were going on a bachelor trip to Puerto Vallarta and he had been there often. I asked him where there was to go see hot women and he said, "You're barking up the wrong tree for that."
Way to be all serious, Rajer.

A good buddy of mine is gay, and a flight attendant.
The stories that come from this guy are ridiculous. He's hillarious and the best flight attendant I could imagine; without him being a chick. Weird your dude didn't know good places to see hot chicks, usually gay dudes have the best access.

I'd really like to bring my guitar with me on trips but am very afraid of putting it in the hands of baggage handlers... even in a hard case.. can't imagine giving them skis either really.

Skis and boots are pretty hard to break. Golf clubs are what i worry about.

I can envision them taking swings at rocks on the tarmac, dropping the bag upside down on the heads of the clubs, etc.

If I were a serious travel golfer I would have a hard case for my clubs.
