After my sprinkling (downpour?) of questions, I have plea:

I’ve been reading posts and trip reports on V-Flyer for some time (hey, if I’m not travelling, I may as well live the buzz through someone else). Anyhow, in one post I came across something that distressed me terribly:

As I mentioned in a previous post, up until the end of last year my experience of transatlantic travel was limited to UA. A few years ago, I was visiting friends in Vegas. I’d connected in ORD and took a Ted flight in LAS. Upon landing, a member of the cabin crew explained that we would soon ‘deplane’ v( .

Arrrgggggghhhh! What on earth is wrong with ‘disembark’? And anyway, with ‘disembark’, the opposite is ‘embark’. What is the opposite of the verb ‘to deplane’? ‘To plane’? Really? Enough said!

Right, that's is for my first posts on V-Flyer. Enjoy your weekends people: Apprantly something big is happening in London tonight ;)
