If you've ever been to the airport, or even had the opportunity to fly anywhere, you've noticed how many people you see that are there for maybe the same reason you're there!
Recently I was on a flight waiting to taxi to the runway to take off, and I was noticing the different dress that the other passengers were wearing.
You've got the business attire people, with suits, ties, dress shoes (polished of course) laptops, iphones, blackberrys, etc!
One particular female passenger had her pink slacks, with these fancy hose with pink flowers, and her black patten shoes! Hadn't noticed or even kept up with the latest style on dress shoes to know that they were back in fashion. Maybe I need to ask my high school friend Janice who definitely knows about shoes!
The other group of passengers were like myself, with casual attire, jeans and a comfy shirt. The passenger that was seated by me on my first flight was in jeans shorts, t-shirt and a ball cap! He smiled when I first came to my assigned seat and put my larger bag over the bin above us. Then I slid my laptop bag under the seat in front of me! I didn't really look to see how old he was until the end of the flight. And to my surprise he wasn't a young guy but somebody probably middle age, or older!
Now the last group of passengers that I need to mention are the families with small children and babies! You can never miss that babies and young children are on your flight! The constant sound of babies crying, screaming are a constant reminder of what you (if you once had young children on a flight) use to have to tolerate, no that's not the word, maybe endure, trying everything you possibly can to rock, sing softly, feed or walk up the aisle if allowed, to keep the peace for the rest of the passengers and crew!! Now if you have a breast feeding infant, it very easy to shut the crying up, and I'll leave that to your imagination!
