OK, we can’t resist.
Kate “Don’t call me crazy” Hanni, the woman who has created a career out of being delayed on a plane once, is supposed to announce later today that her flyer rights organization called flyersrights.org, now has an iPhone app for people to make sure they have not been violated on an airplane.
The app can tell passengers if they have been on the tarmac over three hours, in the past, we called this fancy app, a clock.
Seriously, she does.
We checked out her site last night and couldn’t find anything new on the site (though there is a great video KH has on her personal ordeal.
For those really interested or who think they too could create a career based solely on that one time you found a fly in your soup, hair on your toothbrush or just like to always talk about that one trip when things didn’t go right and congress should pass a law about it, go to the National Press Club in DC and meet Kate Hanni in person at 10 a.m. when she introduces her app and whines about a few more rites passengers should have.
Yeah, we don’t like her. The idea is good and airlines should treat passengers fairly, but too many rules just makes things even worse — and the unintended consequence has yet to be seen. But we already know, there will be some.
