Hi guys. As we are coming up to Father’s Day, airfare deals and sales launched on this occasion, or rather under this pretext, are popping up.

What about you book tickets for two and the second person pays only 50%? That not bad. This is the current sale from the Austrian Lauda Air. The only condition is that you book you flight on June 12, 2011.

In April, the The European Commission has adopted the 17th update of its list of carriers banned from carrying out flights to the member states of the Community as well as airlines which can operate in Europe under specific conditions.
The latest version of the list includes 269 airlines from 21 countries such as Afghanistan, Republic of Congo, Kazakhstan or Philippines, whereas examples of the banned airlines are: Safi Airlines (Afghanistan), Aero Service (Republic of Congo) or Cebu Pacific (Republic of the Philippines).
Recent months have been a good time for both devotees of female charm and aviation enthusiasts and especially for devotees of aviation-themed female charm.
To start with, Ryanair released the 2011 edition of its charity calender where a noble cause was combined with the glamour of the stripped off female flight attendants of this Irish carrier which is one of the biggest low-cost airlines.

Sometimes it is tough to be a plane passenger and flying may be a precarious business given how many things can happen destroying your trip. But sometimes it is the passengers who are giving the crew a hard time. Their list of achievements is long and includes disobeying instructions, unruly and antisocial behaviour or even attacking the crew.
A recent episode which happened on a LOT Polish Airlines flight from Chicago to Warsaw where two drunk passengers ran wildly around and one of them went amok and the punched a female flight attendant in the face is a good example of what we are talking about. The pilots had to land on Iceland and the flights was disrupted and delayed.
What comes to your mind when your read the word «pollution»? We bet it is smog, cars and fossil fuel. This is all right but what about noise? If you happen to live in the immediate proximity of an airport, you know all too well what we mean.

Recent years there has been a lot of talk about airport security and security on board. We are being exposed to reports on numerous dangers lurking from every corner – exploding motors, aircraft falling apart, terrorists on board, terrorists at airports…
During the last couple of days, media report about yet another danger. This time the danger comes from inside. We do not mean TSA officers terrorising passengers or the risk of radiation associated with body scanners. It is about what seems to be the last craze among traffic controllers across the world – taking a nap at work.
