Tell me. Why? Why can't the planes use their air conditioning until they are up in the air? Even if they don't use air conditioning, is there a fan somewhere they could turn on?
what about why they can't close the window shades while they are taking off... isn't that bizarre?
I got off the ridiculously hot plane today with sweat marks on my t-shirt. Also, the man next to me (who was reading a JD Robb book - I hate to be a book/literature snob, but I tried to read one of those once and threw it down in disgust. it was awful!) wanted to talk about how hot it was. And then he had to ask the flight attendant about turning the air on. Like she didn't think about it? Like she didn't notice it was 110 degrees on the plane? Dude, didn't you notice that she is wearing polyester? She is hotter than you are for goodness sake.

Like all grown women, my motto is on a magnet on my refrigerator. "Destined to be an old woman without regrets."

To be a GIGANTIC nerd, the air conditioning system is powered by bleed air from the engine - when you are on the ground (at the gate) air conditioning is powered from the giant plug they stick into the front of the plane (which I'm sure you will now notice). There's of course more to it than that and if your entire flight was warm, it's likely that one or both of the pacs were out; which they will fly the plane at a lower altitude for, but not cancel the flight for.
This is why we love the "rocket scientist" in her...
