Jungle Jet 

A nickname for Embraer Regional Jets (ERJs), so called because Embraer is based in Brazil, home of the Amazon Rain Forest (Jungle). They are quite narrow and small, with only three seats across the entire cabin. Overhead bins are therefore very small, resulting in the inability of most carry-on luggage to be brought on board.
I had to check my carry-on at the gate, because I was flying on a jungle jet.

Jungle Jet 

By analogy with Jumbo Jet, a large unwieldy plane with a dozen (or so) passengers per row, bathrooms and aisles that look like war zones, endless boarding, deplaning, food, and clean-up services, irritable flight attendants and elbow-fighting passengers.
How was your flight? Typical jungle jet - kids crying, attendants screaming, no one got any sleep.

Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.
Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
