DLD 533: Oh no you EWRn’t

The image shows a large, open area inside an airport terminal with multiple rows of stanchions and retractable belts forming a queue system. There are people standing in line, and the ceiling features a modern design with large windows allowing natural light to enter. Signs indicate that this is Toronto Pearson Airport.

All eyes are on Newark these days, much like gawking at a crash when driving by. But fear not; there are plenty of messes to behold around the aviation world.

DLD 512: Branching out

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

DLD 432: You want fries with that

The image shows a Frontier Airlines airplane parked at an airport gate. The aircraft has the word "FRONTIER" written in large green letters on its fuselage. The tail of the plane features a large image of a squirrel, and the name "Sammy the Squirrel" is written near the front of the plane. There is another Frontier Airlines plane in the background with a different animal image on its tail. Various ground service vehicles and equipment are positioned around the planes. The sky is overcast, and the airport terminal building is visible in the background.

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

DLD 416: Going Retro(fit)

The image shows the interior of an airport terminal. The terminal features a high, glass-paneled ceiling with metal beams and columns. There are escalators in the foreground leading up to the main concourse area. The concourse has various signs indicating directions to all gates, ticketing, and other airport services. There is a large American flag hanging prominently in the background. The terminal is decorated with holiday wreaths and garlands, suggesting a festive season. There are also some people visible in the distance, likely passengers or airport staff.

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.

DLD 413: Living the Dream(liner)

A United Airlines airplane is flying over a large body of water with an island visible below. The sky is partly cloudy, and the aircraft is shown in profile with the airline's logo and name clearly visible on the fuselage and tail.

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

DLD 193: You say Tomato (juice), we say c’mon, United!

A close-up of a red cocktail in a martini glass, garnished with a sprig of rosemary and a cherry tomato. The background is blurred and dark, highlighting the vibrant color of the drink.

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!?!
