Round the World

I flew around the world this month and am working on some posts. I'm a fan of the right side of the aircraft, so enjoy some preliminary photos.

Air New Zealand 75 Years Exhibition

Air New Zealand is 75 years old and the Auckland Museum has a special exhibit on the airline.  There were crew uniforms over time, bock boxes from flight 901, and other airline artifacts. Did you know that they stopped flying boat service in 1960 and was the last international airline to do so? The Auckland Museum is a great museum that didn't dumb down when renovating recently. I wish more museums would follow that model.

Thanks for the 1,000 points for signing up, but I'm not interested in participating beyond that.

New Starbucks Rewards Program Tuesday

The new Starbucks rewards program started Tuesday. Unlike airlines making rewards program transitions, ample warning was provided and the last few weeks have been full of generous bonus point opportunities. I'm still not keen on the change, but it stings less.

That's Nice of American

Huh, an airline is treating their passengers like adults. I hope they get carried away and do this more often, like with the seat belt sign.

Need Better Photos

Alaska is 100% 737 and has been for a while. Way to go Denver Post.
