That is very true. Ain't ever heard of a boat losing use of it's engines at 10,000 ft in the air either.

Have to admit, thats also very true. Nor do boats depressurise rapidly.

Saying that though taking into account the millions of miles travelled, air travel is still the safest means of transportation. But to be doubly sure, get the seat over the black box near the rear of the aircraft. (planes dont back into mountains)

Yes but personally I know it's shallow but I would fully refuse to board a transatlantic ship just because of what happened with the Titanic. I hate ships, ever since watching Titanic I've always imagined sinking on a ship.

I refuse to board a big bot the size of a cruse ship. Not because I am scared it may have a fault on board its because I am afraid I might fall overboard!

but if someone was dying a boat is hardly gonna be the quickest route there is it?
oh and it is personally affecting me cos i have family stuck in cyprus my uncle had to track down emergency medication as cos he staying longer he run out so obviously i want them home but i'd rather they be safe and stuck there for however long than be on a plane that crashes
lots of people are complaining purely about not getting on holiday not about getting back to work etc

Of Course a Boat is Slower
but at least you can get on the move and sleep on the Journey.


What Sticks has pointed out is these Volcanic Ash clouds
could increase so much thatr having Ships ,as well, is wise.


On many Radio Stations and News stations
people have stated they are due to Work tomorrow.
Its not just Holiday people

Edited insults out...

Most of the food we receive comes in by ship anyway, its only fast depreciating food stuffs that come in by air, and not a lot of that because its so expensive. I would suggest a little research on the panic merchants behalf to find out which desperately needed foodstuff we require to live off that will be affected.

Fuck me sideways and the answer is NONE because its only bloody luxuries, Gee you dont think thats why the Government isnt really too concerned, that and the fact that self righteous idiots are the ones who start panics, including panic buying when there really is no need?

However did we survive before the advent of the aeroplane, oh thats right we didnt, we all starved and died till someone invented it.

i believe the food stuff affected is not a lot and just things like bananas and snap peas? hardly a urgent need and if as a country we can survive through things like foot and mouth which surely had a bigger effect on food industry than a dust cloud

Obviously so important for life I have never used either, Oh my I must be dead. Tuckfard.

Ever tried getting off your automated ass and growing something yourself? No too easy an answer but oh so many problems with it eh, it doesnt come ready wrapped in disposable wrappings.

Self Reliance is the way forward. See you at Armageddon tard.
