Providing a whimsical but informed view on air travel by a leading management guru, this book supplies a much-needed outlet for the frustrations of the troubled traveler.
Flying is an experience the author defines as akin to cattle-car herding, which begins at depressingly generic and chaotic airports and continues through agonizing hours
in cramped, sardine-class seats, where the passengers are served skimpy and unidentifiable meals and bombarded with "customer service" that amounts to constant interruptions
while trying to sleep or read.

This book is not just about air travel. It is about the emergent social world of flying. It concerns air space and behavior
in the air the way someone else might look at cities and street behavior. Economic, political, and cultural aspects are all
considered...Airports have now become specific places in their own right that, in a certain sense, now...are very much like
cities. Frequent flying also has produced its very own culture. Rules of behavior are subscribed to in the air.
Unique behaviors at terminals and in the passenger cabin have emerged that contrast with life on the ground.
