Every one of the 800 million people who struggle to keep their sanity in the insane world of air travel will be desperate to get their hands on Please Hug Me--I've Been Delayed. Author Jeff Michaels offers his off-kilter observations on everything from earplugs to air stewards, along with practical tips on how to improve the flying experience. Michaels offers his readers
