News and notes from around the interweb:

- The top 20 airlines by cargo capacity three of the top five are US airlines and the other two are from the Mideast.
- Aviation journalist, airline food blogger, inflight catering consultant and supermodel Chrissy Teigen exposes a loophole to bring liquids through airport security. By the way bottles of water can go through a checkpoint when their contents are fully frozen.

- Virgin Australia mocks changes that Qantas announced to their frequent flyer program which were ostensibly ‘huge’ with a billboard outside Sydney’s domestic terminal.
I like the thought of a celebrity who spends time worrying about whether they can take their mashed potatoes and gravy through TSA.
Me too!
I don’t know about dating flight attendants, but hooking up with them isn’t hard. In my better days, I’ve done at the US3, virgin, 2 of the ME3, Cathay, Singapore, and a few weird random regional carriers in Asia. It wasn’t hard.
@Hal, “it wasn’t hard”. I am sure they were very disappointed that it wasn’t hard
Lol at least for the gay men FA. Never have not met one that was not a whore. They typically like doing the nastiest stuff to. Maybe because they have traveled so much and have experienced many kinds of men. So for me personally I would never date one becusse of this.
Many years ago, I dated a guy who was an American Airlines flight attendant who worked Caribbean, European and South American flights. We didn’t experience any real issues with being able to get together every week, but I saw enough red flags in our short time together to tell me he had other men in every far-flung destination he flew and called it quits.
I find that dating a flight attendant is a unique and rewarding experience. If both partners are willing to work together and communicate openly, a relationship with a flight attendant can be successful. It is important for partners to be supportive and understanding of the demands of the flight attendant’s job, and to find ways to maintain a healthy and fulfilling relationship despite the challenges.
