I totally disagree that air tours are overrated and dangerous. I have done several in Alaska and the views were breathtaking and among the most memorable of any excursion.
As for HAL being "stuffy" that is subjective. It is definitely traditional, elegant and folks do dress up. IMO, it is classy not stuffy and that works for me

Eschew: If you meant to comment about the ecomonical aspect only thats fine but you blew it by adding in the ethnic element which was unnecessary and you didn't have the guts to mention it by name but did so by implication. It was you who said to look at who is working at the stores. Those are your words and I am sure you didn't mean Martians. You meant Indians who also run many of the stores in the Caribbean.

Eschew: Tell me how are you so certain that profits made by "them" who are not as you put it "locals" are not reinvested in the US? You are certain that none of this money is used to buy US stocks, saving bonds or is not invested in some in the US economy or do all of "them" send it back to India? How do you know what "they" invest in?
