You read that right. They just coined the worst coined phrase. But, like we know, they have a sense of humor. They came up with the eleven commandments of Jetrosexuals. Here they are (written in regular english, not that "thou shalt" speech they have on their site):

1. You will have your passport ready to go at moment's notice.
2. You will have a favorite airport and a good explanation about why it's your favorite.
3. You will not talk your seatmate's ear off.
4. You will never hold up the security line.
5. You will be able to order beer in at least six different languages.
6. You will spend no more than five minutes in the airplane bathroom.
7. You can pack a week's worth of clothes in one carry-on bag.
8. You don't own an inflatable neck-pillow.
9. You have at least one passport stamp from a country that now goes by a different name.
10. You travel Economy sometimes, just to stay humble.
11. You fly to move business and culture forward.

I was thinking of putting together an online poll that allows you to rate how many of these you match up with. Stay tuned. ]]> http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/08/stop-it-with-the-___sexual-virgin-airlines-strikes-again/feed/ 0 http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/05/two-frequent-flier-stories-two-major-media-companies-one-winner/ http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/05/two-frequent-flier-stories-two-major-media-companies-one-winner/#comments Wed, 11 May 2005 21:38:12 +0000 Joe Murphy http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/05/two-frequent-flier-stories-two-major-media-companies-one-winner/ USA Today did what you would expect (their headline was "Airlines keep VIP clubs to keep fliers," well, duh.) They wrote a rote story on the current state of the frequent flier business. The NY Times went way beyond that....]]> http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/05/two-frequent-flier-stories-two-major-media-companies-one-winner/feed/ 0 http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/04/booking-for-a-first-class-flight-you-might-be-safer-with-a-travel-agent/ http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/04/booking-for-a-first-class-flight-you-might-be-safer-with-a-travel-agent/#comments Sat, 09 Apr 2005 20:31:37 +0000 Joe Murphy http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/04/booking-for-a-first-class-flight-you-might-be-safer-with-a-travel-agent/ http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/04/booking-for-a-first-class-flight-you-might-be-safer-with-a-travel-agent/feed/ 0
