[Plone-conference] gol airlines sucks and I haven't even flown with them yet :(

[Spanky]

As much as everyone loves to hate them for some reason (maybe because of 
the word "American"?), I have religiously flown American Airlines since 
the mid 90's with almost no problems.  Despite mergers, bankruptcies, 
and recessions, they've [almost] always treated me well.  I've flown 
multiple places for free (Zurich, Japan, Caribbean, Michigan) because of 
their mileage program, and I'm poised to make another free flight soon 
(Thailand?).  Usually, their prices are, if not the lowest (of the major 
carriers) at least reasonably close to justify spending slightly extra 
to accrue the miles.

There. That's the end of my endorsement.  See you there!
