You are setting in a seat that was advertised as comfortable with lots of leg room. You wonder what happened to the seat. There is a child behind you that alternates between kicking the back of your seat and screaming at the top of his lungs. On one side of you is someone who should be in a larger seat and on the other side is a gentleman who snores in a very unusual rhythmic fashion. The in-flight movie for this airline is in Spanish not English and you are wondering why. The worst part is that when you try to get out of your seat to go to the restroom it takes 20 minutes and then the rest room is occupied.

The in-flight meal that you are served taste more like cardboard than the steak it is supposed to be. You also feel like you are trapped because you must keep your seat belt on when seated all the time. The plane keeps bouncing around because of the worst turbulence you have ever experienced in your life. While trapped in your seat you must endure wonderful odors of somebody who has a gassy problem and yet still another one has not taken a shower in weeks. The odor becomes so bad that you are actually beginning to gasp for air.

You finally cannot take it any longer and ask the stewardess to upgrade you to first class from your business class accommodations. She explains the cost of doing so to you, which is astronomical and would have cost you less if you had purchased a first-class ticket in the first place.

Once you get to first-class you figure you should have a better seat, it will be quieter and the odors will be gone only to find that there is a party going on. The music is extremely loud and some of the passengers are tipsy if not outright drunk. And the smell, let’s just just say somebody drank a little too much. But, you find the restroom is unoccupied! Only to discover that it has not been fleshed for while and you try to flush it.

You quickly discover why it had not been fleshed. The drain is clogged! As the blue smelly fluid begins to overflow you try to get out of the bathroom. Unfortunately, you cannot because the door is now stuck. You pound and kick the door to no avail. As your new leather shoes begin to be covered by the blue smelly fluid and it slowly rises up to your knees you begin to feel dizzy and sick like you are about to pass out. You begin to pound harder on the door and nobody comes to your rescue.

Suddenly, you find yourself sitting up in a sweat soaked bed. Sweat is rolling down your face when you realize the alarm is going off and it was all a nightmare. You swing your legs over the edge the bed and sit up, turn off the alarm, and begin to relax. You wiped the sweat from your brow as you see the suitcases sitting on the floor across the room. That is when you remember that you have a business trip today and you notice the airplane ticket on your nightstand. Suddenly your heart rate increases again and sweat begins to pop out on your forehead.

You stand up and shake your head. Telling yourself it was just a nightmare nothing more. You decide to take a shower and relax before your flight. The hot water beating down on your body begins to relax you and wake you up and you begin to forget about your nightmare. As you are exiting your shower and begin to dry off your partner comes in and reminds you of your flight and that you should hurry or you miss your flight. The image of being trapped in that airplane bathroom comes to mind.

You reply, “No, I won’t miss it. Call and cancel it.”

“Cancel it?” Your partner replies slightly puzzled. “If you cancel it you will lose business.”

“I’m not going to lose any business.” You reply confidently. “Because I am going to get a private luxury jet.”

“Private jet?” Now your partner is really confused. “That is awfully expensive, isn’t it?”

“Not if you think about the benefits I will gain from using one.” You explain as you dress. “I will have peace and quiet, I will have privacy to work, I will be comfortable and relaxed. I will not have to worry about the pushing and shoving that you normally get on a commercial flight and I know my luggage will be there when I get off the flight!”

“Okay, I will call a private jet charter service for you and set it up.” Your partner replies as they leave the room. They turn and say, “You realize that you can take the trip off your taxes, right? It is a business trip after all.” The door slowly closes behind your partner as you realize the benefits of that nightmare.
