CONSUMERS' CORNER* Airline's complimentary services The Civil Aeronautics Board has suggested that airline passen­ gers ask what complimentary ser­ vices are available to them when their flight has been delayed. The CAB made its suggestion to con­ sumers when it announced its in­ vestigation into complimentary services provided by airlines when passengers are inconvenienced by unforseen trip delays. The CAB noted that with few exceptions in­ formation about services is pro­ vided only upon request. Generally speaking, complimen­ tary services will be provided by airlines when the passenger holds a confirmed reservation and the flight delay involves a period of 4 hours or more. The service in­ clude: Meals during normal meal hours; Hotel accommodations if the delay occurs during normal sleeping hours; Transportation to the hotel. In ordering its investigation, the CAB said the particular pro­ cedures and the extent of services provided passengers traveling in different classes may vary among airlines. The CAB said it was con­ cerned about the lack of uniform public notification of services available to all passengers and about the possible discriminatory treatment of passengers who are not aware of the complimentary services. 3 csv ca uaO aa aSa C5 JSa •V THE OLD TIMER From John J. Kling Jr., Eaton- town, NJ.: When I was a boy I eagerly looked forward to a Sat­ urday afternoon at the local thea­ tre and the latest thrilling epi­ sode of the current serial. These serials were usually broken down into IS episodes all of which end­ ed with the hero, heroine or both in terrible danger with little hope for survival. At times they would be lashed to the railroad tracks (complete with the speeding express train bearing down on them), or they would be in a room with the walls and ceiling (complete with sharp knives sticking out from them) closing in on our hero and the heroine. Hopeless as it seemed, the following week they would be saved, only to fall into another hopeless situation again at the end of that episode. Modern movies may be better technically, but they never will come up to the oldies for thrills - or peruaps 1 wonder 11 it couiu be that I am just growing old?
