Breaking News: Man runs onto runway at Heathrow {Gadling}
Mar 13th 2008 2:08PM Considering all the activity around Heathrow in the past month, I'd say it's very, very suspicious. Apparently they blew up the bags the guy was carrying:

What's going to happen to Southwest Airlines? {Gadling}
Mar 13th 2008 2:06PM Justin, you're probably a lot safer now than you were a month ago. My guess is Southwest will get their act in gear and do their best to clean up this mess. Whether they'll still be a discount carrier depends on whether they can talk their way of out this mess.

Virgin Charter kicks off domestic private service {Gadling}
Mar 5th 2008 2:20PM Well, if you don't have the money to spend on a private charter, you can console yourself with the fact that flying that way isn't exactly ecologically responsible.
So Airborne doesn't really work. Want a refund? {Gadling}
Mar 5th 2008 2:17PM Funny!
Kinda makes you wonder what they'll do with all the money they got from the company if consumers don't come forward...
The world prepares for doomsday {Gadling}
Feb 27th 2008 4:34PM It's comforting to know the vault exists and that our plants at least will be safe from the environmental sucker-punches we keep throwing at the earth:

American Airlines passenger dies after receiving empty oxygen tanks {Gadling}
Feb 25th 2008 10:04AM I agree - this scares the hell out of me. And there's so much more I want to know
* Why did the flight attendant refuse?
* Why didn't the equipment work?
* What do the 2 doctors and nurse say about how the situation was handled?

Tonya Harding "whack around the world" opera showing in Portland {Gadling}
Feb 24th 2008 9:31AM Can't imagine how anyone would be comfortable seeing the entire world make a parody of your life. But I guess it's true - you can take the trash out of the trailer, but you can't take trash out of the girl....
This is Tanya Harding, after all..
Time to start burning those Northwest Airlines miles {Gadling}
Feb 21st 2008 10:15AM A good way to see just how far your airmiles will take you is to visit MileMaven:

If you really can't find a way to extract yourself for a vacation right now, I like your suggestion of buying into the future. I'm not sure I'm a good enough person to give mine away to a total stranger...
Adios, Fidel! Cuba won't be the same without you (hopefully) {Gadling}
Feb 20th 2008 9:39AM I agree - same old, same old - for now anyway. But, Raul is a reformist and the potential for political unrest is huge:

If Cuba becomes to unstable, their gravy train of tourists from Canada and Europe will dry up. Once that happens, Cubans may not be so happy to keep American dollars off their shores.
Time will tell if little brother has what it takes to keep the oppression strong.
Do chocolate spa treatments leave you sticky? {Gadling}
Feb 15th 2008 2:03PM I can personally attest to the fact that chocolate treatments do not leave you sticky - satisfied, yes - but not sticky.
The Little Inn of Bayfield in Ontario, Canada offers a sinfully sweet chocolate treatment for couples:

I'm sure there are health benefits, but in all honesty, when presented with this kind of decadence - who cares!
