If you’re thinking of a winter trip abroad, recent developments in the foreign exchange markets might make it a better bet to take a short break in Europe instead of the US. Last week The Guardian reported that the weakening pound will, along with retailers and airlines, cause prospective holiday makers to be more selective with their destinations than they may have been a year ago.

It seems that trips to the US are the least appealing at the moment with the Pound currently being worth a measly $1.54 - a kind of rate that hasn’t been seen for five years. This means that since last year alone the pound has declined 22.33%.

Today, many European destinations seem far more enticing to the British traveller despite the Pound still losing its might… Continue reading

In concept, VLJ’s sem like the simple answer to the normally expensive nature of private charter jet service. They are cheap to buy (many being sold for under $2 million), cheap to operate and have a fairly decent range (over 1000 nm). So why haven’t they worked? Why isn’t air taxi service the new trend in mid-range air travel?

The basic answer is it’s still not cost effective and the normally standard amenities of a “business jet” are absent in a VLJ. The quick shutdown of DayJet LLC in Florida is a great example of the inability of the “air taxi” concept to make money. DayJet claimed they needed an additional profit of 40 million to stay in business. The soaring price of jet fuel (sometimes as high as $9/gallon) is… Continue reading

Undeniably, air-traffic has worsened threefold over the last couple of years in the United States.

Yes, our skies are reaching their saturation point and the relative number of aircraft worked by our international airports (O’Hare International Airport, New York JFK International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, Miami International Airport, et al) is only encountering problems that they create for themselves. The real problem lies in airline scheduling. With rising concerns as to the safety of our air traffic system erupting all over the country, surveys have shown that the air traffic control system is indeed falling far behind the growth in air traffic.

Last year, a quarter of the domestic flights failed to arrive or leave on time - terming it as the second worst airline delay and the second poorest performance… Continue reading

Many air travelers wonder what exactly are the safest airlines to use when they travel. Here are the winners according to several criteria:

Safest Airlines

Likely the most important criteria for a safe airline is the amount of fatalities the airline has over a period of recent years. This may be the best way to judge the record of maintenance but also of personnel, including pilots and engineers.

Qantas is a name well known to those interested in airline safety. Based out of Sydney, Australia, Qantas safety rating has plummeted as of late, but still ranks fairly high among other airlines of the world in terms of overall safety.

Other airlines considered to be most safe in terms of least passenger fatalities include America West, EasyJet, Hawaiian Airlines, JetBlue, North American Airlines, Southwest and… Continue reading
