Imagine next time you board a flight to Muleshoe Wyoming. You settle in comfortably, the plane takes off and all is good.
Next thing you know, the fellow next to you decides to strike up a conversation.
FLORIDA: “Hey Bud, I can’t believe what this flight costs over $800! Can you believe it?”
VERMONT: “What have you been smoking! My ticket only cost $300!”
Then the fellow from Texas sitting behind says “Holy Cow my ticket only cost $200! What the hell is going on here?”
Suddenly the entire plane is in an uproar. “Mine cost $79” screams the lady in the back from Vermont.
By this time a quiet fellow in the nice suit with matching tie calmly gets up and announces “Attention, I am a Professional Plane Organizer (PPO) specializing in managing travel for clueless travelers like you all.

“Hey, that sounds great! Sounds just like my medical plan. Sign me up!” shouts the lady from Vermont.
