No checked baggage.

So I spent a large portion of my day today packing up my room, and making sure I fit everything I needed to bring home.  But ever since airlines discovered that they could charge for checked bags, flying just hasn't been the same.  Now you have to deal with crowded aisles, full overhead bins, and sometimes gate checks.  I am pleased however that airlines have finally figured out a possible solution.  Reduce the carry-on to 1 bag instead of the current 2, and offer 1 free checked bag with a strict weight limit.  This way it's the same amount of weight on the plane (hopefully), just most of it is in the cargo hold.  Let's implement this now folks.

Airline drink cups.

Nowadays, whenever you take any flight, as long as it's over 50 miles, most airlines will give you a soft beverage for free.  Not meaning to look the gift-horse in the mouth, they are pretty stupid.  The drinks themselves are fine, but mainly the way they serve them annoys me.  Why must they be in plastic cups?  If they know airplanes encounter turbulence, why would they use cups with such a wide mouth?  Instead, I think they should just give us the mini cans of soda/juice, or use these: 

'Shopped it myself.

Or you know the easiest solution?  Give us lids and straws.
