There’s always a catch………..

It’s really the run-around trip special……

Reminds me of the MTA song.

They told that to a guy the other day, he had to open door midflight and land on his own. I’d pay the extra charge

Oh, it’s a joy ride.

no mile high club on that flight

I’ve heard of camel rides in Egypt like that

Looks like a real fly-by-night airline.

“The youthful Dennis Dingle is heading this way. The lad’s not the sharpest tool in the box. He once went for a job interview as a timekeeper in a factory but turned up at the wrong time”. ~ Yesterday’s “Andy Capp” … citing source so not plagiarism, Mod Squad.

But we do serve a very nice in-flight meal while your plane is turning around at the terminal AND we’ll give you your choice of a window seat so you can see the terminal and everything.

well did he ever return? No, he never returned and his fate is still unlearned (What a pity)

Nin-stop flight! We even give you a free parachute, no strings attached!

OK, then what’s the “better” part of that?

There actually have been flights to nowhere for various reasons. Once in November I was seriously considering flying a deep discount fare to Japan in late December just to kick my status to the top level, but some stuff came up and I had to fly enough anyway that I didn’t need to do it. I would have gotten off the plane, but only to walk to the next gate and board the return flight.

“…and did he ever return? No he never returned, and his fate is still unlearned (poor ol’ Charlie). He will ride forever ‘neath the streets of Boston. He’s the MAN who never returned”. (Ballad of the M.T.A., thank you, Kingston Trio!)

Can you quote me a square-trip fare?
