Works for me. If you're flying from Pittsburgh International and want to eat something on the plane, you have a whole mall full of choices. If you don't get something, then you always would get exactly 24 nuts/chips/chex mix in a snack pack - if a nut broke in half, 23 nuts and two halves. I once mentioned this at a party, and a few of the others started counting - always twenty-four!

I've heard that American Airlines saved $100,000. per year by putting ONE less olive in each salad served in First Class. If this is USAirways' equivalent, I'm all for it. Too many of my USAirways friends have lost their jobs in the past decade. Check out The New York Times for the full article. I'd rather eat less and pay less - but I'd probably feel differently, if I was regularly flying over 4 hours a week!
