Saw this article on Cleveland.com announcing that Continental was cancelling its Cleveland-Paris direct flight.
This past summer I flew this route, which was so much better than slogging through Newark or Detroit or Chicago first and then on to Europe. It made me feel like I was in a big, grown-up city. Sit my ass on a plane in Cleveland, fly 8 hours, and step off of plane in Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. Nice.
At least they’re sticking with the Cleveland-London flight, only switching from Gatwick Airport to the much larger and closer to center of London Heathrow Airport.

Silly me…looking for the most direct flight from point A (CleveO) to point B (Italy). Oh, nooo…those simple, logical plans were thwarted, dumped, and gawfed at. I learned I was traveling to the garden spot of Newark, prior to my trip across the large pond.
Do I sound bitter? No…I swear I’m over it now.
Is it too late to ask Santa for a private jet?
In this economy, you can probably pick one up on eBay. Maybe there’s even another one Gov. Palin is selling, you never know…
