Air passengers, crews are flying the testy skies

Jessica Meyers:
Virtual strip searches. Extra fees. Smelly passengers. Scowling attendants. The handful of peanuts that winds up as dinner. The attentive service and effortless transport that once made air travel an anticipated pleasure have deteriorated into a necessary and nerve-racking haul, something to be endured rather than enjoyed. That shift took tangible form this week when JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater reacted to a misbehaving passenger by cursing her on the public address system, snagging a beer and sliding down an emergency chute onto the tarmac at New York's Kennedy Airport.
