 A GOOD PICK UP PUT DOWN BOOK December 5, 2007
Optimistic (Sunny England)
This is a good little book if you're looking for something humorous that you don't have to get too involved in. It's one of those books that you can just pick up and read a bit of, then come back to later. Especially good for fans of flying. It consists of fictional letters to airlines, although it's easy to believe the letters are real. A harmless bit of fun - and don't we all need more of that?!
 Wonderful, wonderful book. November 27, 2007

What a wonderful, wonderful book. Years ago I read the Henry Root letters and Air Mail is the equal of that book, if not better. Quite the funniest book I have ever read in years. My favourite letters are the Dear Qantas ones, but they're all funny.
Extremely funny November 9, 2007

Very funny, the fact that it is all short 'stories' as such in the form of letters of complaint to airlines, makes it very easy to pick up and put down without losing the thread of the book. However saying that, I found it so difficult to put down that I finished the book in one day, more please! For me the funniest tales were the Air China and the Korean Air letters. Also the fact that the airlines takes these letters so seriously, makes for even better reading! I would not recommend reading this book in public as it makes you laugh out loud and you may alarm other members of the public who will think you slightly deranged!
Another reviewer took offence at this book, stating it was racist in places. My feelings are that yes some are, but they are meant to be and the basis of the joke is on the writer, showing up the letter writer in a humerous manner, I certainly was not offended by any of the material. I feel that anyone who thinks that they will enjoy this book will also probably enjoy David Charters books: At Bonus Time No One Can Hear You Scream and Trust Me I'm A Banker, absolutely hilarious!

This is possibly one of the best books I have ever read. It's not often that I find the type of magic thats contained in this book.
I wonder if my neighbours thought something mad was going on, due to cackling coming through the walls. I was infact crying! ha ha
Seriously this is a great book and has bought lots of smiles to myself and my friends. It's particularlly good if you work in aviation as it can be related to.
Brilliant 10 out of 10! - go on buy it, you know you want to!
