News and notes from around the interweb:
- Everyone visiting Qatar for the World Cup needs to install spyware on their phone.
- Instead of using the do not disturb sign put a sticky note over the key card reader
- World’s second richest man, [LVMH Head] Bernard Arnault, sells private jet so Twitter can’t track him
- Was it just six months ago that these videos were a nearly every day occurrence? Things have been so quiet without the mask mandate.
I would like to thank the prick flying @SouthwestAir for getting my honeymoon off to a great start. I’m sure his lawyer will hate seeing this. Staff has been great though! pic.twitter.com/1XfDSDbida

I missed the first part because I had noise cancellation, but I believe the passenger was drunk. Pretty sure he took a swing at that passenger, but didn’t catch it in time on video. I could hear him after he left the plain screaming that he hadn’t had a drink at all.

- British Airways passenger strips naked, uses floor of the aircraft has his lavatory maybe just frustrated having to deal with Heathrow all summer?
- Austin’s airport “is expecting a record-setting 21 million passengers this year. The current record stands at around 17.3 million passengers, set in 2019.” That’s 21% growth over pre-Covid, which was already on a strong growth trajectory.
- The BWI Priority Pass restaurant on Concourse C (American, Southwest), sorry Amex-generated Priority Pass cards no food credit for you. But Chase, Citi, and Capital One folks go have a meal and then head over to the Minute Suites (pre-reserved via their app, natch).
- Why did this…

…Remind me of this?
BA passenger from the news is a Nigerian national who was being deported from UK and so he tried to delay that.
That’s an interesting way to protest against being forced to fly out in BA economy class.
