Things in the Sky

Apologies that these are up a bit later than usual…

1. The Alitalia drama continues, though it looks like the airline will keep flying.
2. Shareholders of both Northwest and Delta approved the merger.
3. Boeing expects the price of oil to stabilize around $70-$80 in 2008 dollars. That would be nice.
4. Delta Shuttle is going to have first class, and travelers can earn double miles on shuttle flights to boot.
5. There are some more regulatory hurdles regarding the DHL-UPS deal.
6. Looks like some interesting things happened over at the parent company of Sun Country.
7. I talked about Air New Zealand’s fuel-saving efforts this week, here’s an article on an upgrade to BA’s 777s that will help save fuel.
