I just couldn't pass up this one. Anyone think this will, er, fly?

If there are Hooters girls on the flight, then I can just imagine the class of client that will frequent their airline.

Looks to me like they are padding the payroll.

This is just a rich guy having fun with his money for a while, till he decides the drain is too much. Silly season, not anything broad-er. (pun certainly intended).

I really don't have a problem with it - like you said, it's his money. I'm just not a fan of the whole Hooters thing, I guess. Average food served by lousy waitresses, most of whom really aren't that attractive. I have no problem with women showing skin, but I think it's a horribly overrated chain frequented by some seriously creepy people.

I imagine seat cushions aren't the only things that can be used for flotation devices.

Yes - someone HAD to go there.

"I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here."

Well, at least I'm only a creep a couple times a year (for this reason at least). :D

If the food's better than on a regular airline, they'll get people

The whole idea is really weird. "So, let's see, how should we expand our restaurant business. How about an airline?" Huh?

When I do an airfare search on Travelocity, is Hooters going to come up as an option? If it's the lowest fare, will I take it? This is going to keep me awake at night . . .

Amen


Not a high standard to set - almost anything would be better than regular airline food
