Happy Halloween!!!!
The world’s population has reached 7 Billion People. Somehow, I think all of them are trying to get through Atlanta airport the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
Amtrak is adding free wifi service to 12 east coast routes. California is next scheduled to start operation sometime this year.
This weekend’s early snowstorm in the Northeastern U.S. wrecked havoc with flights all over the place. Four flights diverted to Hartford—3 on Jet Blue, 1 on American—forced passengers to stay on their planes for more than seven hours. This is in clear violation of the new passenger rights laws that could mean a fine of $27,500 per passenger. The U.S. government has yet to enforce the law. I wonder if they’ll start now. (Somehow, I doubt it.)
Qantas is flying once again. A labor dispute had grounded their entire fleet over much of the weekend.
After 42 years, the D.C. Tourmobile, that offered narrated tram tours of the nation’s capital, will shut down after today.. Like so many other businesses, it’s been hit by financial problems.
A Washington, D.C. hotel guest is finally checking out—after over 10 years in residence. I think it would kind of cool to live in a hotel. You need anything, just pick up the phone. A friend of mine lived in an extended stay type hotel for three years and loved it. The only reason she left was because she inherited a house and decided to move in.
