You are right on, Brock. I added to your distaste and wrote my own post about this news release. Enjoy! http://www.spinsucks.com/public-relations/a-letter-to-jet-airways

@fizzandpop: bad news, the Indian billionaires cant seem to build a website that could tell me how much a flight from SFO to LHR would cost me.

Not to get off on a rant here....but god, American Airlines have slumped to new depths of just-plain-not-giving-a-crap-anymoreness. Not only do they make it totally obvious that every single member of their organization has a pathological hatred of passengers, I just paid $2500 for a coach ticket that included the joys of mechanical failure, lost luggage, inedible food, and a large CRT monitor above the middle row showing a bunch of commercials for AA. All the flight attendants are angry middle-aged heffers from Deluth or crackly-faced, odd-smelling queens and are just the biggest collection of bitter losers ever assembled. Fuck you, fuck your management and fuck me if I ever fly on your third-world attempt at an airline. Just crash, burn and leave the skies open to Indian billionaires who seem to know what they're doing.

I loathe Gavin Newsom and his idiot bride. Everything bad in the universe is their fault times 10.

i'm aware that it's not from the mayor's office. but i can't image any resistance from them to the initial example.

Looks like a flak release from Jet Airways, not the Mayor's Office, nO?

Jet Airways has delicious veg and non-veg curry for lunch and Bollywood on the video on demand screens. They made an excellent choice.
