Live and Let’s Fly Weekend Digest: November 12, 2017

Matthew Klint Posted onNovember 12, 2017November 14, 2023 Leave a Comment

After a quick trip to Honolulu to commemorate the final United Airlines 747 flight, I’m back in LA…for tonight anyway.

Tomorrow my next trip begins: a business trip that I’ll detail tomorrow that will take me on a product you might think I would have flown by now, but actually have not. Later in the week I will be in Chicago for FTU Expo and am looking forward to seeing many of you.

Earlier today Emirates revealed its new first class product on the 777. I’ll detail that tomorrow. With new first class products from Singapore Airlines and now Emirates, we are really seeing the next generation of first class.

Here’s a look at the week’s top stories.


TOP STORY: Debate: The Abuse of “Emotional Support” Animals

I offer my thoughts on how we can reduce the abuse of passengers using “emotional support” animals to avoid pet fees.
