And go commando...Jonee D tries out a lavish private-jet tour and, along the way, discovers a whole new way to see the world LIVE. POSTED Jonee D November 2018 The BOEING 757 was cruising toward the Cape Verde Islands for a brief refueling stop when my seatmate asked a flight attendant a question I had never heard on a plane before ( and likely hadn’t been uttered in the past three decades of aviation history ). “May I have seconds?
