News and notes from around the interweb:
- The ordeal of Air Canada passengers suffering a 24 hour delay in Tokyo and sleeping at baggage claim

- A 250,000 point credit card signup bonus. Targeted, and requires $55,000 in spend.
- Has Uber overtaken rental cars for business travel? (HT: Alan H.)
- Australian consumer show has a very Aussie take on online travel sites versus booking hotels direct. (HT: Tnooz)

That Aussie consumer show, The Checkout, is brilliant! (And you’re right, it’s very Aussie.) Thanks for posting that link.
