It was Thanksgiving week in the US, so we shifted our gaze to Europe and the Middle East, with plenty of news being made.

Can fries be reasonably served as a side on board? And, quite frankly, why not tater tots instead??

Refreshing cabins is a nice touch, but why does it take so long?? Also, how long will it take Southwest to pay out all the comp it owes.

Just a couple hundred (more) new planes coming to United through the end of the decade. Nothing to get excited about here.

A great credit card debate to kick things off this week. Which is terribly unusual, but also pretty interesting. Also, the US3 v ME3 might finally be settled, with a bit of Mexican collateral damage. And do people really care that much about tomato juice on board!?!

Fozz almost got stuck in Berlin this weekend, but quick thinking saved the day. Also, errors bring lawsuits, The ME3 are all sorts of crazy and purple is coming to Delta’s uniforms.
