    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?

    Are you longing for the days where you can smoke on a flight?
    Ryanair's new marketing ploy is to sell you their own "smokeless" cigarettes.
    This will gain them the revenue lost by discontinuing their bathroom tolls.
    2 more reasons to breath a sigh of relief.
    I think they're just gearing up for their standing room only flights. They have to off you something.

    Orbitz.com has changed their hotel booking cancellation fees. While some hotels may still charge their own cancellation fees, Orbitz will not tack on any of their own fees. This does not include their general cancellation policies where hotels are included in a total packaged deal.

    The Department of State is alerting U.S. citizens to the quarantine measures imposed by the government of China in response to the 2009-H1N1 pandemic that may affect travel to China. The Alert updates the July 9, 2009, Travel Alert in order to advise U.S. citizens of the current quarantine situation. This Travel Alert expires on Dec. 30, 2009. In May 2009, China implemented a policy that allows it to quarantine arriving passengers who exhibit fever or flu-like symptoms. Although the overall percentage of U.S. citizens being quarantined remains low, the nature of the selection process makes it almost impossible to predict when a traveler may be placed into quarantine. From May to August 2009, the Department of State received thousands of reports of quarantined U.S. citizens. Since September, however, reports of U.S. citizens in quarantine have been infrequent.

    For those of you who might have thought you were about to get a break,
    **** UPDATED 29SEP2009 ****
    Both the House and Senate have now passed a three-month extension of the federal aviation excise taxes. The President is expected to sign the measure no later than September 30.
    Nothing like waiting until the last minute....the current bill is in effect until, you guessed it, September 30.

    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 overnighter to Europe?
