So British Airways finally went and launched its all-business-class flights. Any thoughts from the peanut gallery on how that's likely to work out for them?

A rundown from the AP of the recent trend toward baggage fees now also on international flights: "Baggage Fees Join Your Overseas Flights," by Joshua Freed. What's next, just a bag of pretzels on the next flight to Europe?

LOL Did you get a load of that lobster tail they were serving? And the canapés??? In 1967, when I was five years old, my father and I flew from Havana to Madrid on Iberia, in coach class, of course, as we were leaving Cuba under, shall we say, less than happy conditions. Well, guess what they served on that flight? Lobster tail! IN COACH! Now they're charging us for WATER on some airlines. Ah, progress.
