This Week in Links
Christmas time is often travel time, but even though a lot of people were out of the office and away from the computer, still there was plenty of stuff worth reading over the last week.
Rolf Potts' Vagablogging talks about the problems that a lot of Asian's have with translation into English, notably confusing the verb to f*** with to do.
One of the forecasted hottest destinations for 2008 happens to be on my list as well. Trend Central lists the 10 next big things in travel. Number one: my next planned vacation getaway, Buenos Aires. Nice!
Problem one: Tourist flying home to San Francisco needs to get home for dialysis treatment. Problem two: Oversold flight, bumped sick passenger. Problem three: On the next flight, the ill passenger passes mid-flight. Result: lawsuits, of course! USA Today's Today In The Sky has the scoop.
As the year ends, we take time to remember those people and things in our life that aren't there anymore. The Cranky Flier pays respects to airlines we loved and lost this past year.
