I had a chance to check out the facilities and equipment aboard Swan Hellenic SH Minerva, which was the ship we were taking to Antarctica. I had no idea just how much this vessel had to offer guests. I took one quick view of... The post Facilities and Equipment Aboard Swan Hellenic...

The DoubleTree by Hilton in downtown St. Paul told guests they must leave by noon as the hotel temporarily closes, citing “heightened public safety concerns.” The shutdown lands amid escalating tension in the Twin Cities tied to federal immigration operations and ongoing protests, with hotels increasingly caught in the blast...

Delta’s new order for 30 Boeing 787-10s (with options for 30 more) doesn’t actually solve its near-term widebody replacement gap, since deliveries don’t start until 2031. Now an insider who correctly flagged the 787 deal months in advance says Delta isn’t done shopping—and the strongest bet is a sizable Airbus...

The first time I encountered a squat toilet was in the early to mid-1990s, when I went to Japan with a friend of mine named Teri. It was a very…

In a surprising shift, Boeing has had an incredibly strong year despite significant, persistent, aircraft approval delays. Airbus is losing on widebodies.

While we’re not in the habit of chasing hotel elite status, having even a basic level of status can come with undeniable perks—like stronger Wi-Fi, a later checkout, or simply…

A screaming child meltdown on a Phoenix–New York flight took an unexpected turn when another passenger—off camera—screamed back, and the child abruptly calmed down. It “worked,” but it’s still not okay to yell at someone else’s kid—and there are better ways to break the pattern without crossing the line.

Social media has ruthlessly trolled a young influencer who filmed herself screaming aboard a Singapore Airlines flight after becoming terrified by turbulence… It turns out, however, that Mia You, a 27-year-old Korean who now lives in Singapore, has a very good reason for her extreme fear of turbulence. Six days...

At least on paper, one of the biggest perks of having elite status with an airline in the United States is being eligible for complimentary, space available first class upgrades. Admittedly these aren’t nearly as useful as they used to be, given that airlines have gotten much better at monetizing...

If Elon Musk were to seriously consider buying a major airline, Ryanair might not be the fantastical choice critics would expect. The Irish ultra-low-cost carrier isn’t just cheap on ticket prices; it’s one of the most profitable and operationally robust airlines in the world. Musk has the capital and appetite...

We just wrapped up a trip to Deer Valley, Utah. We traveled with our older son, Miles, as it would be his first time ”skiing,” so we enrolled him in ski school (which… is an adventure when we’re talking about three year olds, but that’s a different story).

Elon Musk and Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary’s Starlink spat has spun into a new bit: Musk musing about buying Ryanair and “putting someone whose actual name is Ryan in charge.” Plus: JetBlue’s JSX partnership ending, a near tail strike involving American’s new A321XLR, Scott Kirby praising Flighty, meal-voucher strategy during...
