Although security measures are much tougher everywhere, I have had the pleasure of traveling via regional airports in Nepal; where army personnel with machine guns pointed at your window greet you at the airport when you show your ticket. Also, there are many security checks and body searches, not to mention the many army checkpoints along the way to the airport, so most western airports do not seem so bad now. Where the terrorist threat is real, I do not mind the extra hassle. David Renaud, Brisbane, Australia
Too many people who procreate seem to think that this mere act confers special status. Subjecting others to their unruly progeny while ignoring the often, extreme discomfort of others has become the norm. These "parents" need to control their children or be removed from the flight. Jeffry C. Gilbert, Bangkok, Thailand
Being a pilot I cannot imagine the size of the wake vortex that aircraft will make. For a 747 we have to hold back from flying for up to five minutes and this aircraft is supposed to be much larger than that. Will I have to have a ten-minute wait if I am departing behind an A380? Dan Kelly, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
I cannot imagine having a seat in the back of this new large Airbus aircraft (A380)! You will have to wait 20 minutes just to get off the plane and over an hour to get through immigration. At least my bags should be out by the time I get there. I am someone who always checks the airplane type before I select a flight and I will never pick a flight that is being served by an A380. Kip Gowland, Bedford, Texas
My travel pet peeve is this: Unruly and/or loud children. Parents, listen up! There is absolutely no reason for your children to act up when in an airport or airplane. If you cannot teach them how to behave in public, perhaps you should stay home as a family. It never fails, every time I get on a plane I am seated near a family with 2.5 children, and they are absolute brats for the duration of the flight. Children can be taught. That is one of their main missions in life -- to learn. If you are "responsible" enough to have kids, then you should be responsible for teaching them how to behave in public. Better yet, take a road trip and leave the flying to the rest of us. Amy Fischer, Portland, Oregon
It is definitely not a problem to stay fit on the road! I pick hotels that have good gyms with flexible hours (some leave their gyms are open for 24 hours and I "make it happen" usually early morning or late evening. I also think eating is actually easier on the road since you can order exactly what you want when you are in a restaurant. Steve, Cleveland, Ohio
The A380 photos sure look nice. But do not be fooled. They will pile in 800 people, not 525 as they keep saying. There will be no bar, nor lounge, nor store. What a joke. When a few toilets are stopped up, little kids clog the aisles, and the movie just finished, "air rage" will become a group exercise! Pete Kuhns, Indianapolis, Indiana.
Hotels offer meager fitness facilities that are packed during peak hours. Traveling is inherently tiring, and employers often expect to get the most bang for their buck -- meaning longer hours while you're on the road. This means you eat later dinners or skip your exercise routine. Tony Mandator, Columbus, Ohio
