    I will only fly in future on those airlines that do a not allow mobiles. Mobile use is just as anti-social as smoking as far as I am concerned !!

      Typical conversation you hear by load mouthed gits on trains.

      Hi Pete, it's Bob. How's that 40 million pound deal going with Ferrari? Still on for Saturday in Monaco? Shall I arrange the crew for the yacht? Nice one, catch you later, got to go, need to call about my private plane. Bye.



      SHUT THE **** UP!!

              I save myself the cost of the call these days - I ring when BMI are on time, so have never had to use my mobile yet.

                So never then....

                Thought I might have seen you last week at the airport - I think you probably got in as I was leaving...

                  Guess who will be the 1st one?

                  Ryanair - they announced that sometime ago. Expect to be a 'big hit' along with their overpriced drinks/snacks, 'duty frees', train tickets, lotto tickets and 'charity' collections.
                  Followed by Easyjet and the usual 'no-frills' brigade.
                  BA and the others should make a stand, however a BA spokeswoman said: 'It's different flying business class to Paris at 7am and an overnight flight to Miami' (beats me as it probably costs the same, but then again it was a spokes-woman)

                    You can already have boorish conversations on planes if you feel the need. They have phones in the armrests in all of the flights I've been on recently.

                      Quite possibly - it was about 840 or so when I finally got in. Girlies were sleeping in the car when I found them.
