The Flight

Toronto to Vancouver, cross-country, in four hours. I was surprised to find the jet lag did not bother me much at all; I have a strange sleep schedule anyway. It took four hours to fly and we went back three hours. Simple.

The only catch was that we had a mother and her five young children in front of us. The kids would simply not stop moving, banging their heads against the seats and shrieking. We spent much of the flight discussing how much we would pay extra to be on a child-free flight. Our final concensus was $100-200. Despite the inevitable outcry from sanctimonious parents, some airline could make a fortune.
