News and notes from around the interweb:
- Who knew that CLEAR had a kids’ coloring book? Get the most out of your membership, I guess!
- Should you try a ‘mattress run’? What to know about the hotel-points hack. (WaPo)
- A Jet2 flight from Antalya, Turkey to Leeds in England diverted to Bulgaria turning a four hour flight into eight hours after a violent altercation occurred onboard involving two passengers. A man in a striped shirt, identified as the instigator, exchanged blows with another passenger. That other passenger put the striped shirt man in a headlock but was bitten on the neck. And another individual threw an object, possibly a bottle, at the striped shirt man during the brawl. Just another day with a British holiday airline…

I have to look at this egregious error for the next 2 hours on an American Airlines [Airbus A320] flight. The error is as far as the eye can see, in every row.

Brilliant really. Now everyone knows where the flotation device is.
That’s nothing. They mispelt the addresses of almost every hotel in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria in their Sabre CRS: They interpreted “Hauptstraße” &al as “Hauptstrabe” instead of just asking any German speaker what the fancy ess-tzet is. Typical American hubris though.
Buttigieg should be handing out resumes. That incompetent tard has been the absolute worst DOT secretary in decades.
