Would you fly to/from Vegas on 9/11?

A friend of mine proposed going on a short trip to Vegas in September and he floated out a few dates -- one of which would have us flying back on 9/11.

Curious -- do any of you think it would be crazy to fly on 9/11, especially with the recent London attacks?

I know, I know...you can't live your life in fear and all that logical thinking..but, that means squat when you're walking onto a plane on that day.

Curious as to everyone's thoughts on this matter? Thanks for any input you have.

if anything, security would be tightest then.

I would fly 9/11.

I refuse to alter my life because the possibility exists that a terrorist act may occur.

Sean: "I think I'd go with the belt on that one."
Will: "I'd always choose the pipe."
Sean: "Why?"
Will: "Because f*** him, that's why."

(I realize not the exact quote from GWH, but close enough to make my point.)

Interesting perspective and I agree for the most part...what movie is that dialogue from? I like that..

Good Will Hunting, though I screwed it up a bit.

I am flying to Vegas on 9/11. I didn't think twice about it. The chances of something happening are so remote its not worth the time to worry about it. If something going to happen its going to happen. Rest assured if your on my flight and something does go down there would be a fight.

None of us has any insight into what Al-Qaeda's 9/11 plans are.

look at it this way, if you were part of that group of maniacs, would you try anything else using planes?
heightened security.
locked cockpits.
every person on board ready to fight to the death to spoil any plan they may have.
best case for them is the plane goes down like the one in PA, and those assholes can't stand to have their plots "foiled" like that.
ok, now i'm worked up just typing this.

I flew 2 years in a row on 9/11, the planes are totally empty [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I also flew out of JFK in NYC just 11 days after 9/11. Americans are scared of their own shadows, get over it people... get on with your lives. I was standing 10 blocks north of the tower when it went down, and I lost some associates, but you won't see me living in fear.

that reminds me...

I BARELY missed a couple subway/station closings due to bomb scares on my way back from AC last weekend, from what I understand...

that would suck - to miss your plane cause some jackass joked about a bomb on the Penn Station platform...

but fly on 9/11 - hell yah - I really think if anyone tried a repeat of ANY hijacking on an American Aircraft, esp. by towelheads, that you'd see a repeat of the Pennsylvania aircraft where the passengers overpowered the hijackers - I don't give a [censored] if he's got dynamite strapped on, take him down before he kills thousands...
