Isn't capitalism great or what?

I'm sure it will increase the salary of the VP and stock holders . Who gives a shit about customers and their comfort. They will pay and use it anyway.

In this video by "Redacted", Clayton Morris interviews Ashton Forbes about the disappearance of MH370. Forbes describes in detail his decade-long research into that mysterious and tragic incident. Topic includes USA counter espionage, top-secret anti-gravity technology operated by Lockheed Martin. In my humble opinion, Ashton Forbes looks and sounds genuine as he describes this incredible set of events and dark military operations with covert advanced technology.

"What really happened to Malaysian Airlines fight MH370? 10 years ago... Malaysia #Airlines #Flight 370 disappeared from radar on 8 March 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur International Airport in #Malaysia to its intended destination in Beijing. But It never arrived and neither did the 227 passengers and 12 crew members whose family members have been in anguish ever since. What happened to their loved ones?

Who's covering up the real story?

10 years have now passed and we finally might have some leads as to what caused this disappearance. #AshtonForbes has in many ways devoted his life to figuring out what happened here and we decided to invite Ashton on to talk about some of this new evidence."

Airlines Sue Transportation Department Over ‘Junk Fee’ Ban

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg fired back on social media, “We just issued a rule requiring airlines to inform you, before you buy a ticket, of fees they will charge you. Now the airline lobby is suing us, saying that if you have the right to that information it will ‘confuse’ you. For once, I am speechless.”

Diversity Naysayers Make Labor Crisis Worse

A good article by Russ Niles on #AVweb. The story deals with #aviation, but is widely applicable and well argued.

One of the most interesting, frustrating, entertaining and occasionally frightening tasks of the modern-day editor is monitoring the comments on the stories we run. Most outlets have disabled comments because it’s just too much damn work to filter out the mean, hateful and irrelevant missives that inevitably appear no matter what the topic. It must be all Trump’s fault. Or wait, maybe it’s Biden’s.

Southwest Airlines is now limiting a service that lets passengers buy a better spot in the boarding line

'EarlyBird' has proven popular among passengers who want a window or aisle seat near the front — and just as importantly, room for their bag in the overhead bins.

Stupid #Lufthansa, they changed the reservation of my kids and re-booked them to a flight to #Newark from #Nice airport instead of going through #Frankfurt.

Now that they have arrived in #US, their connection flight was canceled and they booked them for another flight at 8pm tomorrow.

Talking to #UnitedAirlines and Lufthansa didn't help at all and they are being really unfriendly and uncooperative.

I should have booked the ticket using my #Revolut card, at least they could receive help getting home and insurance would cover it.

I am really pissed!
