US airways shows another reason it is awful

While US Airways deserves to be congratulated for eliminating beverage charges on domestic US flights after a period of a year charging for drinks, its attitude about an improvement in cabin atmosphere is telling.

Flightglobal reported US Airways CEO Doug Parker saying "the programme was very successful. What we didn't know at the time, but later experienced, was that the cabin atmosphere would also improve with fewer carts in the aisles and shorter lines to the lavatories".

Yes, shorter lines to the lavatories because of dehydration.

I've never flown US Airways, and nothing I have heard about the airline in recent years gives me cause to change that.
