Cheap - O - Air

Cheap - 0 - Air is economical to fly,
It's not too low, and it's not too high.
They claim to get you where you want to be,
And that, as reasonable as can be.
But if you're prone to high-class style,
Don't fly Cheap - O, they charge by the mile.
They don't have nuts, or toast, or jam,
But one thing they do have is plenty of Spam.
They'll fly you to places you'll love to see,
And as far as those others, they're absolutely free.
They have the best planes your money can buy,
But most of them aren’t ready to fly.
All they're needing is waiting on carts,
But Cheap - O is too cheap to pick up the parts.
So if on air fare you wish to save, don't fly Cheap - O,
They'll put you in your grave.

That's a good one, George. I think you hit all of Cheap-O's best points which I guess there aren't many. Maybe we bring our own wings instead of a carry on.

Thanks, David I appreciate greatly you taking the time to respond. So many readers and so few who respond is a common theme on the Soup. As far as Cheap - O goes I think I'll go with a parachute and bring my own snacks... George

This made me smile especially as I don't particularly enjoy flying, but as I live on an Island it is a necessity I do it occasionally - thankfully 'cheap o' don't exist lol:-) hugs Jan xx
