Fight Breaks Out On Russian Flight
Fights in Russia aren't exactly novel. I mean, I think half of YouTube is made of Russian dash cam road rage videos, like this one.
But it's not every day you see a fight break out on an airplane. In this case it's not nearly as "graphic" or climactic as some of the dash cam videos, but it's still well worth a few minutes, in my opinion.
Questions that immediately spring to mind include:

Delta Will Sell You Elite Qualifying Miles And Even Elite Qualifying Dollars!
As airlines are wont to do (see, for instance, American’s offer), Delta will sell you elite qualifying miles to top off your 2014 total and boost your 2015 status. Delta, looking out for my best interests, won’t sell me any qualifying miles since they’ll sell you between 2500 and 10,000 miles and I’m more than […]

British Airways Visa 10% Discount Extended Through 2015
One of the best thing about booking revenue tickets on British Airways is that there are two great discount offers out there, which can be stacked:
-- A 10% discount on revenue British Airways tickets for those with the the British Airways Visa Signature® Card
-- A $65-400 discount per revenue British Airways ticket ($65 for economy, $130 for premium economy, or $400 for business/first class) for AARP members
Obviously this is useful when booking revenue economy tickets, since you can get both $65 off, plus a 10% discount.

Nude-o-Scopes on eBay: Buy Your Own Security Theatre at a Deep Discount
The ‘Buy It Now’ price for a Rapiscan backscatter machine, just like they used to use at TSA checkpoints, is $7995. Just what you need to add realism to the airport security play set (which a reader generously gave me for Christmas in 2005). These are government surplus, and I love this line from the […]

Could Electronics Soon Be Banned From Flights?
There have been quite a few news headlines lately about how al-Qaida is apparently planning five attacks on commercial airlines flying to Europe around Christmas.
I have several flights to/from Europe around the holidays, so when my mom heard the news today she instantly sprung into "scared" mode. My response whenever these kinds of threats are discovered is to say that I'm ultimately happier knowing about the threats which have been uncovered, as opposed to the countless number of threats we don't know about. After all, what you don't know about can't hurt you... until it does.
Anyway, I'm not an intelligence expert so won't chime in further there. Instead I'll just share what's apparently being considered as a possible preventive measure.
