To TSA or not to TSA, that is the question. Some members of Congress want to do away with the TSA, while others want to give it more powers.

Hawaiian Airlines begins East Coast service next June when it starts daily round trip service between Honolulu and New York’s JFK airport.  It will be a nonstop flight on an Airbus A330.

Holland is getting closer to changing its laws when it comes to foreigners and smoking pot. Under a new law, that privilege may only be extended to locals.

Next year, Virgin Galactic will start flying ordinary citizens into space. And now we can report that one German insurance company is offering, yes, space flight insurance.
