Flying With Fish The Blog for Those Who Fly & Those Who Want to Fly Smarter

Over the past few months there have been many topics I sought to write about on Flying With Fish regarding airline, aerospace and travel social media, however these topics never really fit the content people have come to expect on Flying With Fish.   A few weeks ago while working on an airline social media [...]

Baggage is an annoyance on the road; even carry on baggage, especially short trips.  Travel with bags slows travelers up at security check points, leaves traveler property at risk for theft or loss at security check points … and for day trips requires travelers to schlep their bags wherever they go.

While most people love iPhone Photo Apps, most just disappoint me … with a few exceptions … so I tend to just use the iPhone camera as is then edit the photos later in the Filterstorm App (which I really need to write about since its been overhauled & released for the iPhone). This week’s [...]

After being noticeably absent for the past few weeks from Flying WIth Fish as I focused primarily on aviation security stories I am happy to bring back the iPhone App of the Week series. This week’s iPhone App of the Week is timed to correspond with the peak holiday travel season … which also happens [...]

How to hold your iPhone while watching a movie on a flight … it’s a problem that has plagued users since all the way back to June 29 2007 (OK, its not that long ago) … but now there is a solution that is better than most others. The Versihold Personal Media Stand is an [...]
