If you think airline travel has gotten bad, read The Lunatic Express by Carl Hoffman. According to a Wall Street Journal book review about the book (“Planes, Trains And Miseries: Planes, The hugger-mugger squalor endured by the planet's traveling billions"), Hoffman will show you what travel is like for the Planet’s poor:
“…which means the vast majority of humanity—the simple business of getting from place to place is almost invariably a savage and insufferable nightmare, unsafe and unsanitary, run by incompetents and regulated by crooks.”
After reading the book, you will never again complain about Amtrak or budget airlines!
