Fly American from St. Louis to Glendale

Well, how do you do, dear vagabonds, jet setters, and overall flight enthusiasts! If you've done your civic duty of keeping up with the times, you must be acquainted with those metal aerodynamic birds, flying people from coast to coast. I bet the first thing that came up on your radar: American from St. Louis, Missouri to Glendale, Missouri. No? Well, let's talk about that anyway. A round-trip so fun, had Aesop known about it, he'd recount it as the Tortoise and the Hare. The beauty of sustained acceleration against the reckless breakneck speed. But enough chit-chat, let’s dig into a breathless account of this potentially legendary jaunt.

What's that? You don't see the quaint charm of two cities in the same state? Oh my wayward reader, flights aren’t always about crossing oceans or leaping over continental landmarks. Sometimes it's the domestic flights that leave the longest-lasting impressions! Particularly when it comes to the ineffable charm of our American's flight from St.Louis to Glendale!

Consider the company's flight cancellation policy, as enigmatic as a Sphinx's riddle. "Book now, and maybe you'll fly, maybe you won't," a dare, a raffle ticket for the daring, a Russian roulette of airfare! Brings an unprecedented thrill to every step of the booking process that no blockbuster espionage movie could ever hope to rival.

As it’s a shorter flight, the in-flight services have very limited room to shine, akin to a theatre actor confined to a broom cupboard, but shine it does! The stewardess, clad in navy blue and carrying a tray of decidedly room-temperature beverages, winds her way through the cabin like a determined salmon swimming upstream. Her battle cry, "Chicken or pasta?" bouncing off the reinforced aluminium walls.

What’s this flight's pièce de résistance, you're asking me? Well, it's not exactly the non-stop nature of the flight, nor the irregular heartbeat of the flight schedule. No, indeed. It’s understanding American's baggage allowance policy! A game as fun as a Rubix cube and Sudoku, all woven into one. Picture this: your bag is exactly 50 pounds but then you remember your lucky anvil, and where do the charges begin, exactly? Oh, the free-spirited joy of the unknown, the unpromised!

You wander then, how does this flight rack up in Business class and Economy class? Is Business Class like a short vacation in the lush pastures of Palau, while Economy class like being a guest in the Queen of Hearts' court? Such innocent questions, worthy of a swaddled infant! The truth is, it's like comparing two types of bottled water: identical containers, same journey, but one just tastes inexplicably worse. Interestingly, premium economy would be the equivalent of having a slice of lemon added in said water. Drenches the experience in a whole new flavor, indeed!

Conclusively the only aspect that remains honest, unvarnished, all facts and no frills, not subject to sarcasm or satirical overtones is indeed the flight itself. Short but sweet, the cityscapes of St. Louis shrinking back, and the welcoming lights of Glendale a leaf out of the ‘Gatsby’. No matter how the wind blows business class, baggage allowances, or flight cancellations, the flight's essence yet remains untouched, from the heartland of St. Louis to the swiftly burgeoning cityscape of Glendale.

So pack your bags, or don't if you dare, and book that flight one-way or round-trip, if you dare even more. American awaits you, ready to sweep you away on a whirlwind adventure, laced with mL's and lbs, premium, economy or business: choices aplenty. Why, you could well become a frequent flyer! Enjoy the flight, and who knows? Maybe we'll end up neighbors in Glendale!
