    “For business travelers, that means a business-class cabin sale like you’ve never seen before. Instead of $7,000-$10,000 or more for last-minute business-class to Frankfurt from the U.S., prices are now around $2,000 to $3,000.”

    Lie-Flat Seats Come to Low Cost Carriers (or at least to Air Asia X)

    Air Asia first class flights

    Over on Jaunted, they are rightfully celebrating the first lie-flat seats to come to a low-coast carrier.

    As low-cost carriers have added longer routes, they haven’t necessarily added the types of perks that long-haul travelers are used to. However, that might be about to change. Well, at least Air Asia X has taken a step to make it change. The low-cost carrier has added first class lie-flat seats to be available on flights between London and Kuala Lumpur.

    Hopefully, this move will turn into a trend, and travelers will be able to save a little money on long-haul flights without giving up comfort altogether.

    Richard Branson’s “Underwater Plane” – The Necker Nymph

    I often wonder what I would do if I were a billionaire who ran a few companies, owned an island, and was working on getting a spaceship to fly commercially. I tend to think my next move would involve the purchase of a one-of-a-kind “underwater plane.”

    Well, it looks like Richard Branson and I are on the same page:

    “Virgin Limited Edition, the luxury division of the Virgin Hotels Group, announced that the billionaire entrepreneur is purchasing a first-of-its-kind underwater airplane.”(from abcNews)

    Yes, the craft travels underwater, but it is said to use “the same principles of flight through air for underwater navigation, making it capable of ‘undersea flight.’”
