Vi er klare for en heftig sommer .... selv skal jeg soerge for aa beholde ATA-kortet mitt selv om jeg bytter jobb .. det er verdt sin vekt i gull for aa 'snike i koeen' gjennom TSA-kaoset..

Brace yourself for a summer of miserable air travel.

Planes are expected to be packed fuller than at any time since World War II, when airlines helped transport troops. Fares are rising. Service frills are disappearing.

And many airline employees, after years of pay cuts and added work, say they are dreading the season ahead. Those workers — there are about 70,000 fewer than in 2002 — will be handling more than 100 million more passengers this year than they did four years ago.

The friendly skies, indeed.
