DLD 501: Star signs and labor challenges

One strike averted, another underway. And plenty of challenges remain for the aviation industry overall.

DLD 409: Sorry we missed you

Maybe we’re supposed to say something in advance when the publishing schedule changes. Oopsie.

DLD 391: Some Independence thinking

A long, narrow causeway stretches out into the sea, partially submerged by water. The causeway is made of concrete tiles and is flanked by seaweed-covered rocks and shallow water. In the distance, a few people are walking along the causeway. A tall, thin pole stands on a stone base to the left of the causeway. The sky is overcast, and the overall scene appears calm and serene.

Great news: The holiday weekend wasn’t a total meltdown, despite warnings from airlines.

DLD 345: Teaming, trimming & traveling

More airline partnership and a key route trimmed. Plus, cool new trains and airlines and loyalty plays.

DLD 337: The Tropics of New England

Aerial view from an airplane window showing the aircraft's wing and engine. Below, there is a landscape with a river, bridges, and an urban area with buildings and roads. The sky is partly cloudy with scattered white clouds.

Summer is heating up in more ways than one. Booking rooms in some destinations is dicey and seems unlikely to get better any time soon.

DLD 298: Mixed awards, mixed messages

The image shows the tails of two airplanes with a white background. Both tails feature a red logo that resembles a stylized phoenix or bird. The logo is prominently displayed on the vertical stabilizers of the aircraft. The sky in the background is overcast.

When an airline says it is concerned about passenger safety and then increases the number of seats sold that can be hard to reconcile. But at least they’re leaving it members of their cabin crew to keep posting anti-mask FUD on social media, right??
