Anybody else almost die recently from asphyxiation riding to or from lot S? It's not just one but several of the buses have black smoke pouring out of the exhaust pipes and are filling with exhaust gases. It was making everyone on the bus sick today. I originally thought it was just our bus (blown rings or something) but saw another ASA bus blasting smoke out the back as well.

More senior pilots and flight attendants tend to park in Lot S (as opposed to 3). This is all part of reducing costs.
 
Carbon monoxide in itself is colorless and odorless but it can most certainly be mixed in with the black smoke and exhaust and kill you.

I think I saw that warning label on a DC-9.
 
The bumpy ride on those buses was worse than the fumes. It felt like a bus ride through the Andes mountains.
