- 0:23Speaker 3: LA to San Francisco, Atlanta to Charlotte, that kind of thing.
- 0:26Speaker 1: I mean, look, they are short flights. I'll give them that.
- 0:30Speaker 1: You know, you don't need much for forty five fifty minutes.
- 0:33Speaker 3: I need my water.
- 0:34Speaker 2: But at the same time, yeah, I need my water.
- 0:36Speaker 2: And what is a little small pack of pretzels?
- 0:38Speaker 3: Can I just send my pretzels and water and it
- 0:41Speaker 3: just moves things along. You just feel better, right, I
- 0:43Speaker 3: don't know if there's something about it's oh it's snack time, okay, yeah,
- 0:48Speaker 3: and then we'll be landing.
- 0:49Speaker 2: I actually have an eye mask, you know, to cover
- 0:52Speaker 2: to blacken out your light. I have an eye mask
- 0:55Speaker 2: and on it it says wake me for snacks.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so they know.
- 0:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I love my snacks, right, But that's that's sad.
- 1:04Speaker 2: I mean, I hope this is not a trend where
- 1:06Speaker 2: more airlines will keep doing this.
- 1:08Speaker 3: I don't know if the other airlines already are. Maybe
- 1:11Speaker 3: they are right thinking that some of them already are.
- 1:13Speaker 2: But Delta is in the headlines for doing this. Yeah,
- 1:17Speaker 2: when do they implement this?
- 1:19Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be May. It's coming up May
- 1:22Speaker 3: nineteen or something. I just have the date.
- 1:23Speaker 2: If you're flying Delta, you'll know when they don't hand
- 1:26Speaker 2: out peanuts if you're going Sarahcuse Syracuse to LaGuardia or
- 1:29Speaker 2: something like that.
- 1:30Speaker 3: Our dear neighbor Jim curR is very upset about the
- 1:34Speaker 3: biscough cookies.
- 1:35Speaker 1: He said, was that your coffee chat? I know you
- 1:37Speaker 1: went out he got coffee during the break you saw
- 1:39Speaker 1: Jim Curve. Yeah, Q one A four point three.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Yeah, he was bummed about that. He's like, just you know,
- 1:44Speaker 3: they put two cookies in there. They're perfect. I'm going
- 1:46Speaker 3: to miss those.
- 1:47Speaker 2: But you know what, I don't want to be negative here,
- 1:49Speaker 2: but all the money we're spending on flights these days,
- 1:52Speaker 2: it costs more money to go to Orlando than it
- 1:54Speaker 2: does Europe. It's us and we can't get free peanuts. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:58Speaker 2: I know these are small flight of the small.
- 2:00Speaker 3: Flights, but yes, I mean we should be able. That's
- 2:03Speaker 3: a longer flight.
- 2:04Speaker 1: But I'm thinking they have the money.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Just in general. I don't know, Kabby. I just feel
- 2:09Speaker 3: like it's the little things, like we just keep chipping
- 2:11Speaker 3: away and it's like, oh, little things in life that
- 2:13Speaker 3: we liked. I told you, like, you know, I love
- 2:16Speaker 3: Trader Joe's. And I know this is before times, before
- 2:19Speaker 3: the pandemic. You could go in and they would always
- 2:21Speaker 3: give you a little little baby cup of coffee, and
- 2:24Speaker 3: I love their coffee, and I was like, oh, this
- 2:25Speaker 3: is perfect because it powers me up to go through
- 2:28Speaker 3: the store. And then a lot of times I would
- 2:30Speaker 3: end up buying coffee, you know, and they don't do
- 2:33Speaker 3: it anymore. That never came back, at least not at
- 2:35Speaker 3: my Trader Joe's.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Like these little things like that, things.
- 2:38Speaker 3: Yeah, that just made life just a little more I
- 2:42Speaker 3: don't know, fun enjoyable.
- 2:43Speaker 2: Well, if Costco stops giving out free samples, I will
- 2:47Speaker 2: have to talk to somebody.
