I’ve posted in the past about a new CW “reality” show, “Fly Girls,” which revolves around the lives of some Virgin America flight attendants, describing their careers as glamorous and exotic (yeah, an eight hour overnight in Seattle sounds really glamorous and exotic).
Well, check out the trailer:
Um I’ll refrain from really commenting, but are the [...]

I’ve heard the landings into LCY tend to be “firm” due to the short runway, and given that the A318 is the largest plane flying into the airport, I was expecting a rough landing. So for the first time ever I decided to take a video on a plane and upload it to YouTube. I [...]

I just came across this, and it’s pretty darn cool. A graduate student at UC Berkeley produced a 20 minute documentary about the pursuit of frequent flyer miles as part of his master’s thesis. While I don’t know him, I recognize lots of the people being interviewed and in the video.

This is just too good. A hilarious new “Up in the Air” trailer has just been released. His approach to earning miles is different than mine, but much more entertaining.
I can’t wait for the movie!

Check out Richard Quest’s CNN Business Traveller episode about British Airways’ new Club World London City service. I love CNN Business Traveller, and this episode is particularly interesting.
Stay tuned till the end of the month and you might get another perspective…..

Check out Continental’s latest ad:
I’m torn on this one. On one hand it’s “modern,” but at the same time the first 20 seconds sound more like an advertisement for a sports car or Boeing, which usually makes me tune out instantly. By the time they mention Continental the commercial is over.
I’m more of a fan of [...]

Check out this video that the Edmonton International Airport put together. As they describe it:
Take a look at these two before you take your next flight from EIA! This award-winning video showcases how–and how not–to use the many “future airport” technologies that make flying from EIA easy, fast and comfortable.
Am I the only one wondering [...]

I thought the first two “Up in the Air” trailers were brilliant. Well, that’s until I saw the most recent trailer which was released yesterday. I can’t put into words how excited I am about this movie. Seriously, at least based on the three trailers, could they do any better of a job portraying us? [...]

Ah, Virgin America’s marketing department, which at times seems to be made up of immature 14 year olds (that is, when they’re not working on deals with Banana Republic), is at it again. Check out this series of ads, no promotional videos, no, ok I don’t quite know what, here. Don’t get me wrong, some [...]
