I got addicted to Tetris, playing it in my basement, I was missing all these airplane flights over it. After the fourth one that I missed, I realized I needed to get rid of this thing - so ever since then, I don't play video games any more. ↗

Most people are flying to Heathrow because it's a hub, so they can fly on to other places, often long-distance flights.

I spent my entire childhood living abroad because of my father's occupation, so we were on long-haul flights all the time. ↗

Despite the painful changes we have had to make, we continue to believe in the St. Louis market. And we are hoping to add flights, in a careful way, as the economics of our business improve and the demands of the traveling public in St. Louis become clear. ↗
