    Continental Airlines flight 1065 from New York to Mexico City. “Excuse me, Mrs. Flight-Attendant Lady, I do not think that I am able to sit in the Emergency Exit Row of this airplane.” They had told us to go ahead and speak up. She looks at me like I have to be crazy, like she’d never heard this before, she looks for missing arms and says “Why are you not able?” and I say, “Because I don’t really want that responsibility.

They feel that their philosophy is unique and actually is opposite of most airlines companies.
