Should Flight Crew and Airport Employees be Allowed to Do This?

Airports are getting busier and the security lines are getting longer.

British Airways now offers Unlimited Wifi to Select Fliers

Staying connected on a long haul (or even a short haul) flight is becoming more and more crucial.

Hey United Airlines! You’re Drunk, Please, Just Stop.

When you’re driving down the road and you see a car accident, let’s all be honest, you slow down to look. We’re mesmerized by the accident, and even though often times it is gruesome and horrible, we stop, slow down, and look. That seems to be what’s going on here at United Airlines with their new launch of Premier Status and their Premier Upgrade “plan” for 2020. And I’m using the word plan...
