Update on Eppley Airfield (OMA).

Half of you got it right. Qatar Airways says it transported more than 10,000 horses in 2023, or 28+ per day.
The new facility includes:
140 dog kennels
40 cat kennels
24 horse stables
Custom spaces designed for day-old-chicks, birds, fish, reptiles and exotic animals.

This is a great story with a really powerful bit about how an NYCT Subway station agent unknowingly saved a life on the job

What would you change in this 11 days between conferences in Europe??
Hamburg to Vienna by night train
Overnight in Vienna w a friend

Alternate take: If we can't drip price, withhold refunds and hide the real cost from travelers we oft take advantage of then we'll raise prices elsewhere to compensate.

And shitting on ATC staffing (yes, it contributes to some delays, but still) here is impressively poor IMO.

Might real personalization finally fly on inflight entertainment systems? JetBlue is giving it a go with its newly launched Blueprint offering, powered by Thales Group AVANT.
