And you can schedule up to 30 days in advance! If you haven’t already used Uber or Lyft, use my referral links to get a special prize.

I’m not sure if airline service is getting worse, we’re more intolerant of bad behavior, or we’re more willing to express our frustration. Or maybe it’s a combination of the three? With airlines cramming more passengers into planes, the frustration is sure to happen. Passenger complaints doubled over last year and have continued to climb.
