  "account": "This summer has once again proven how the travel capitalism continues to refine its tactics, increasingly cunning strategies to suffocate the customer. For example, the record for the most expensive airport snack was broken: 439.43 euros. The unfortunate individual could not afford the purchase and was taken to the dungeon of the terminal, a vast underground where he and others like him were forced to search for lost luggage among piles of suitcases while paying for their consumption. There was a special section for Iberian hams, for those who made the mistake of ordering a ham sandwich. Their release is not expected until 2035. Sometimes they exchange prisoners with highway service areas, with similar prices, but there are fewer of them, as you can get embossed the car of the unwitting there. Also, in the purchase of airline tickets, striking cases have occurred: a family of five who preferred not to pay by choosing seat and trusting to chance was mercilessly punished by the algorithm, which not only assigned them seats at the most metrically distant points of the device, but also went further and placed them on different flights with different destinations for each of the five continents.",
