Okay So They Serve Food…

img_3756.JPGContinental Airlines is the first airlines in a long time that I traveled on that served food. They had two choices – turkey or beef. Unfortunately, both ways, since we sat in row 24, there was no more turkey.

So, we suffered with the beef. “So what?” you think. Well, there was no food at the airport to bring on the plane and when we stopped for a roll or a croissant this morning at the Sheraton Panama City Hotel, they couldn’t understand our English and we ended up getting a funky piece of “pan” or what we call “bread.” It was inedible, so we didn’t eat.

“Well, there should be food at the airport” Brian said.

There were duty free shops filled with Lacoste clothes, Ferragamo bags and lots of luggage. Interestingly, the luggage was being sold in all sizes. Who’s buying a big piece of luggage at the airport once they get through security? And, where are you going to put it? The luggage under the plane is under the plane! Whatever….

But there was no food, just a lonely hot dog stand. When we got to the gate, we were told that by gate number 25 on the opposite side of the airport they had food.

Racing through the airport, we found a little cafeteria at gate #25. We ordered Tostados Frances, however, when it came to us it was cold and rubbery.

So much for airports, airlines and traveling! There’s got to be a better way to travel. Why haven’t they (whoever they may be) perfected the transporter?
