That Plane Ticket Will Cost You About 60 Wendy's Soda Cups

Here's a funny (weird funny) article in USA Today about people diving into dumpsters, looking through ketchup- and mayo-filled boxes for free miles offered by Air Tran and Wendy's. Some lucky finders are auctioning miles online while others will be visiting family and friends thanks to the promotion.

That's great but that's not why we found the story weird. The USA Today article talks about a fly-thru restaurant at Altanta's Hartsfield airport. What's a fly-thru restaurant, you ask? Well kinda linke a drive-thru only with a plane. I hadn't heard about this until now but AirTran Airways, The Coca-Cola Company and Wendy's International, Inc. took America's affinity for drive-thru service to new heights on November 10 after executing the world's first fly-thru quick service order. Only in America...
