PLEASE JOIN PaxPax.org

Today, due to increased awareness, interest in safer air travel is growing. Meanwhile, the flying environment has become very dangerous—pax ("passengers" in airline lingo) can barely move or breathe. There are fewer flights, fewer airline employees and load factors are higher than ever before.

I hope you will take this oppportunity to join PaxPax.org. Please contribute to this effort to secure the changes that are required to create the safety and quality of flying that all of us deserve.

When you join or contribute to paxpax.org, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping hundreds of millions of passengers who fly each year.

Your tax-deductable contribution will help us to assist the flying public in the following ways:

• Getting our database ready for networking

• Publishing special reports and videos

VOLUNTEERS

We need volunteers—a database programmer and enthusiastic pax who are interested in reporting on their flights about cabin comfort and pax health/safety.

PaxPax.org will train volunteers online.

FROM DIANA

Nine years ago in a radio interview, Art Bell, asked me: "Why don't we have an advocate—I mean you're obviously that—a high level advocate who represents passengers' rights?"

I quietly and politely (like a good flight attendant), told him: "That's what I'm trying to do because no one else is doing it."

Now with more media exposure under my belt and successful expert witness testimony, and with the airlines more abrasive than ever—threatening standing room on future flights, and publishing phony studies to show that people don't get sick from recirculated air—I've decided to move into a higher level of advocacy to be more effective.

My new focus centers on a database I am creating to enable passengers to network. The IRS has granted me nonprofit status for this project, and the web site where this will be hosted is PaxPax.org. I look forward to getting the funding for this interactive database.

I also look back now at the many steps which have brought me here. In 1966 when I was hired by Pan Am, I learned that the word passenger (both singular and plural) was abbreviated by the airline industry as the three-letter code: pax. I also knew pax as a word from high school Latin. It means peace. Holding this higher purpose in my heart for the last 40 years—that passengers should have peace—my dream is now manifesting as PaxPax.org.
