Cleveland Hopkins Airport

I returned from yet another West Coast trip on Friday, April 25th from another city that people are running to, unlike Cleveland, where everyone is running away.  I stepped out of the baggage claim to head to the parking lot shuttle and what did I see?  The City of Cleveland was repairing the potholes in the bus lane for arriving flights on Friday afternoon!!!!!!!
 
This is so typical of the city administration (it does not matter who the mayor is).  You need to do some work on the arriving flight lanes at the airport, so you work on them at the busiest time of the week for arriving flights.  The buses were backed up to the light, all the way around the curve.  The guy standing next to me and I were just flabbergasted.
 
Nice work Mayor Jackson.

National Car Rental

Last May, I was driving a rented Dodge Durango in MN when a college kid crashed into the back of my car.  I was not cited by the Police, and felt bad for the kid because he was really upset.  (He was afraid he hurt me since his car was totaled).  I spent 6 HOURS on the phone with National over the next few days, where the proceeded to treat me like the accident was my fault and not a single person asked me if I was OK.
 
6 days ago I received a letter from National revoking my rental privileges and demanding payment for the accident.  They lost all of the information I sent them, and most certainly mis-posted the check from the other guy's insurance company.  So, even though I am an Executive Elite renter for at least (5) years I had to spend another (2) hours on the phone with National and several insurance companies to run down  all of the information that National lost.  Eventually, National may graciously allow me to purchase their services again.
 
Continental Airlines would never treat a customer that way.

Airport Construction

I have to travel all over the world for work.  Without fail, it seems that every Airport in the US is undergoing construction.  Quite frequently, it does not seem to be to expand capacity or security.  It seems to just be a method of spending $.  Did the feds raise our airline taxes too much after 9/11 (OF COURSE) and are they trying to spend the money any way they can?
 
Visit Orlando (Continental terminal), Nashville or various other airports.  What is the point of the construction?
