My adventure-ready carry-on is midway to the overhead when this guy offers to hoist it up. You’re a prince, I say. Curlicued mustachios climb skyward as he volleys the bag into the bin, then proffers a card between crossed fingers, whisper smooth. Call me. I tilt my head towards the next row back, say, Give that to Harry, would you? Shoulders sagging, his ‘stache plummets to the blue mood-lit aisle.
