Delta gate personnel also thretened a female passenger at 9:30 pm who said 'this delay is f**cked up' and told her that they would proceed to take her luggage off the plane. http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/595481.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/595481.htm Thu, 19 Jun 2008 19:15:00 GMT The purpose of this blog is not to discourage people from flying Turkish Airlines, which is a fine company and generally provides fine service, but rather share constructive criticism with the airline and give them a chance to improve their services in a very competitive global industry they operate.I will be posting my entries live, on the road from my blackberry and as it happens, as I am either flying Turkish Airlines, or doing business with the company. So as you receive new blog entry email alerts, I will probably be still at the scene of my latest blog post. http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/474130.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/474130.htm Thu, 13 Dec 2007 09:45:00 GMT Tvtrip.com, the new, travel site where travelers get to check-out their hotel on video before they book it, announced today two major steps in its expansion. The site now offers 4 key destinations in the US (New York, San Franscisco, Chicago and Miami) and plans on adding 10 more US cities in early 2008. TVtrip has also boosted their destinations in Europe with 50 available popular cities. The other big step is TVtrip's hot, new player making it easy for the user to access all the information, without ever leaving the viewer. 'The great reaction to our site has helped lead to our phenomenal growth in Europe and now in the U.S.,' said Marc Ruff, Founder and Chief Executive officer of TVtrip.com. 'When other properties see how potential travelers respond to our videos and our web site, they want to be part of TVtrip.com and we are happy to have them.' http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/463023.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/463023.htm Thu, 15 Nov 2007 13:00:00 GMT I asked what she did for a living. She said she was a software engineer working with SOA. I did not think about my plane ride much until I arrived in San Francisco to attend the SOA World Conference & Expo this past Monday and Tuesday. The first day of the conference as I walked into the hotel, guess who I saw? My friend who I met on the Turkish Airlines flight from Istanbul. What a small world, isn't it? Her company was one of the sponsors of the event. http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/417521.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/417521.htm Thu, 16 Aug 2007 19:30:00 GMT Perillo Tours, the largest tour operator to Italy, has been a family-run business for over 63 years. Led by three generations beginning with Joseph Perillo, then Mario Perillo and now Steve Perillo, Perillo Tours' fully escorted tours provide excellent sightseeing, first-class hotels, and experienced and knowledgeable tour guides. All tours include transfers, baggage handling, American style breakfasts, tips, taxes, and dinners with complimentary wines and mineral water. http://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/414800.htmhttp://www.yachtchartersmagazine.com/read/414800.htm Fri, 10 Aug 2007 12:15:00 GMT I love JetBlue Airlines; I adore and admire its founder and chairman David Neeleman, one of the most competent CEOs in the business. I flew with David on more than one occasion. The airline has a cost-savings policy: in flight the crew prepares the plane for the next flight, and by doing this they save both time and money. On one of my flights returning from California to New York, David gave his seat to the standby passengers (he had three seats reserved in the last row for this red-eye flight) and flew in the cockpit. When we landed at JFK, he had his gloves on and was cleaning the front bathroom of the plane for the next flight.
