News and notes from around the interweb:
- The Straussian reading of this UK Civil Aviation Authority blog post is that Global Airlines won’t launch next year.
- Steve Belkin, who is the stuff of legends in the mileage world is back as trip leader for Competitours, for the first adventure game (think Amazing Race for Regular People) outside Europe.
This winter’s trip will begin in San Jose, Costa Rica on December 26th and will end in Managua Nicaragua on January 6th. Participants must be at the San Jose, Costa Rica airport arrival area by 1 p.m. on Dec. 27th for the official start of the trip.
And we’re hosting a “Team View From The Wing,” you still need to be all-in, but this will be a ‘buy one get one’ opportunity to travel to mystery destinations around Central America and compete for a cash or mileage prize. (Submit interest as a team of two or three, one will have the full $4,350 covered.) Just email your interest to info-at-competitours.com with a description of the people on your team and why you think you should be chosen, along with a photo of your team together.
