I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far!
On the points & travel front, this week we learned more updates about the USA vaccine timeline, airline startup Breeze Airways was cleared to start operations, Air Serbia acquired a used A330 to replace its existing A330, a shot bar opened at Seattle-Tacoma Airport, Etihad revealed that it intends to retire its A380s, New York announced plans to end its domestic quarantine requirement, and more.
