I've done a fair amount of flying, but not as much as some of you, I'm sure. I was once a United Platinum flyer, but have only been 1-2 round trip flights per year since then and none in the past 2.5 years. In all of that time, I've only been seated next to a hot chick once, and I think the flight was something like 9pm-2am or something like that. There was no chit-chat.

I'd be happy to chit chat with someone interesting, but I generally just don't talk to anyone around me any more than I have to.
