Cultural Notes 文化注释
在美国乘飞机旅行非常方便，价格也比其它任何地方便宜。美国的州际及国际航空公司有几百家，全都是私营，各航空公司之间的竞争很激烈。据国际民航组织1986年统计，美国有3200架民航飞机，占世界总数的五分之一，占世界总航行里程的46.7%，占世界总旅客人数的64.7%。世界上10个最繁忙的机场中，美国占了8个。其顺序排列为：Chicago-O'Hare International(1), Atlanta(2), Los Angeles(3), Dallas-Fort Worth(4), New York-Kennedy International(6), Newark, New Jersey(7), Denver(8)和 San Francisco International(10)。?
在波士顿(Boston)、纽约(New York)和华盛顿(Washington)间的航班，不须预订，不须办理行李手续，甚至不须买票，可直接在飞机上买票，每小时都有航班。?
