There's a story going viral at the moment that's both disgusting and confusing, no matter how you slice it. It involves the actions of a comedian on a flight. I'll share what we know and then what we don't know. Jess Moore is an Instagram comedian with…
Unfortunately there aren't many details out there about this video, but A Fly Guy's Cabin Crew Lounge has shared video footage of what appears to be two airline employees getting into a serious fight. We're not sure where exactly this is -- I've seen…
There are lots of videos out there of planes where most of us think to ourselves "boy am I happy I wasn't on that flight." Well, I think this video might just be in a different league. There's video footage of this morning's British Airways flight 492,…
The Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program launched in mid-February, replacing Marriott's previous three separate loyalty programs -- Marriott Rewards, Ritz-Carlton Rewards, and Starwood Preferred Guest. Personally I don't really get why they decided to rebrand…
WestJet is transforming at the moment. This includes the airline installing a "real" business class product on their 737s, and much more significantly, also taking delivery of 787s. The airline operated their first revenue Boeing 787 flight yesterday…
This escalated pretty quickly. The Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), which represents American's flight attendants, is calling for answers after a skit that was performed this weekend was posted online. It depicts four ladies in flight…
British Airways sure does a great job with their marketing videos. I love their "BA Magic" campaign, where they've encouraged people to write in sharing a trip they’d like to take for a special reason, and British Airways (sometimes) makes it happen…
Nowadays airlines put quite a bit of effort into their safety videos. Rather than just making them informational and boring to the point that people tune out, they try to make them engaging, so that people are more likely to pay attention. There are…
Can I file this under the 'here's something you don't see everyday' category? On Saturday morning, customs officials at India's Chennai Airport stopped a 45 year old male passenger coming off a flight from Bangkok for a random security check. As they…
Advertising during the Super Bowl isn't cheap, and the companies that do typically focus on making ads interesting, rather than focusing purely on "selling" their products. Turkish Airlines was one of the companies that took out an ad during yesterday's…
Air New Zealand is hands down the most innovative airline when it comes to their safety videos. Some of my favorite safety videos have been from Air New Zealand, and they’ve typically introduced at least two new safety videos per year. Most of these…
Saturday Night Live seems to have air travel themed skits with some frequency nowadays. I'd say they're mostly pretty funny, though I think generally the more you know about a topic, the less funny these skits become. For example, in the past couple…
Nowadays most of the viral videos we see from onboard planes involve fights, confrontations, etc. That's why I think this cute video is worth sharing. There's video online of something nice that actually happened on a Ryanair flight. Music students from…
While I don't speak any Russian and have no clue what exactly is going on here, this is still sort of awesome. Reader Andrey forwards a video that was uploaded to YouTube yesterday of a boy touring Putin's IL-96 plane. Apparently it was the 15 year old's…
Aeromexico has gotten political in some of their ads recently. Aeromexico's biggest foreign market is the US, though obviously right now there's some contention between the US and Mexico, especially regarding the wall (heck, we've had our longest government…
I have no clue how it's possible that this was released over two weeks ago, but just entered my life now. VietJet is a Vietnamese low cost carrier that is perhaps best known globally for their annual flight attendant bikini calendar. Personally I'm not…
Since January 3, Qatar Airways has been teasing something throughout their social media channels with the hashtag #LikeNeverBefore. Many of us assumed that this was a big announcement that we should actually be excited about. After all, Qatar Airways…
I love a good marriage proposal story, especially on a plane. Some of them go to plan in terms of the other party saying 'yes,' though some airlines unfairly punish cabin crew for becoming engaged during a flight, as this very unfortunate China Eastern…
A video has gone viral the last few days from a Lufthansa narrow body flight. Although faces are obscured to protect their privacy, it show a passenger in the aisle seat filming the two seats next to them (i.e. to the window). A small child has been…
Nothing says "class" quite like a fist fight breaking out at the Ritz-Carlton Aruba on Christmas Eve. That's exactly what happened, and there's footage of it: I'm really undecided as to what the best part of all of this is:
A story is going viral of a man who had the cops called on him and was kicked out while staying at the DoubleTree Portland. The incident occurred when Jermaine Massey was spending a night at the DoubleTree as he was in town for a concert. When he returned…
