News and notes from around the interweb:
- American Airlines flight makes emergency landing due to fumes that turned out to be a passenger smoking in the lavatory.
- Interesting look at the business of AwardWallet and some data on users
- Denver airport janitors have voted to strike over their current $17/hour wages I certainly wouldn’t schlepp all the way out to that airport for that pay.
- Delta’s twitter team didn’t get the joke, either.
Are you asking me if the seat number that you have been assigned is 2B ?

- American Airlines has removed seat back video from its Boeing 737s, but that doesn’t mean there can’t be seat back entertainment.

- Airline union contract negotiations, explained.
2B joke was lame AF. That guy needs to get out of Alabama.
Not a big fan of the 2B joke. I looked the guy up, hoping that he was a famous Shakespearean actor because that really would make it funny but no such luck.
On the topic of seatbacks with no screens, I was on 2 densified A321 flights trying to get movies to stream to either my iPhone or iPads, neither would work, just ads then black screens. Live tv would work, but no luck with movies using safari or chrome with iOS 15. Anyone have ideas what’s going wrong?

What’s wrong is flying AA…sorry, couldn’t resist taking a shot at AA.
