On July 2, 1937, Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were en route to Howland Island in the Pacific, about 1,700 miles southwest of Honolulu. They were six weeks and 20,000 miles deep into their trip around the world. By then, Earhart had already become the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic and from Hawaii to the U.S. Mainland; her globetrotting trek would simply be the latest in a line of incredible accomplishments for the aviation pioneer.
But Earhart and Noonan never made it to Howland. Somewhere along the way, Earhart’s Lockheed Model 10-E Electra became too heavy and short on fuel, and the pilot and her navigator lost sight of the tiny, two-and-a-half-square-mile island in the middle of the ocean.
- Hyatt says meetings and event business is picking up for the second half of 2021 bear in mind that hotels are negotiating cancellation policies on group bookings that are extremely flexible vis-a-vis Covid-19 risk.
My own bet right now is that the summer is pretty good from a Covid perspective, but that it’ll take some time for a big set of people to feel comfortable. The fall should stay good if mutations that current vaccines defend less-well against do not become dominant.
- Qatar Airways introduces ‘touch free’ inflight entertainment via phone and bluetooth. This is nothing, American Airlines has this already on almost their entire domestic fleet. They simply remove seat back video screens entirely.
- Marriott is offering a 40% bonus on purchased points as long as you buy 2000 or more, and the annual purchase cap is doubled from 50,000 to 100,000 points for 2021.
- Not new, but I hadn’t seen this one before:
Wow….Gary’s journalistic depth knows no bounds. Finally a story that has something to do with aviation (At least by the title) and low and behold, there is no story! Just a list of links to other trash that has nothing to do with Aviation. You really think it is appropriate to use the death of a great aviator to sell more ads? Is there no low you will not sink to there Gary?
It would be good if there was closure. Despite all the theories, including a ridiculous WW2 movie that she was spying on the Japanese Mandate islands (far too distant for their fuel capacity) the probability is that they were short of fuel, looking for a very tiny target that could have been hidden by clouds, and through miscommunication were transmitting on a frequency that their standby ship was not listening on. I helped out on a book about her and the likely conclusion is that she was just pushing her luck (being pushed by her husband) and it was not surprising that this leg of the trip failed.
He’s got a sword, and we’ve crossed swords! That is all I’ve got to say.

Qatar’s innovation is real. You get to see the movies on a big screen and control it from your own phone.
What longhaul planes of American Airlines has this? Their 787s? 777s?
The Amelia Earhart report would sure be interesting.
