Mood Lighting — It’s Possible On The Plane!

787-windowsx-largeOne thing that I hate about flying is not only the fact that I am cramped into a seat for quite an extended period of time, but … the lighting.  That is something that I absolutely hate!  Most of the time, the lighting is very dim even when it is on and you definitely do not get enough light.  Well, Virgin America has changed all of that.

They have actually improved their aircraft’s a heck of a lot and mood lighting was something that has been on their mind for quite some time.  Not only does the lighting actually come from the pane on the wall, but it is actually soft, rather than harsh.

While we can not expect this in every plane, eventually – I hope it will be a standard!

Know Your Airline Fees Before You Go!

K64060_lgThe holidays are upon us and if you are like everyone else – you are probably traveling to see your family.  Well – I can tell you for sure that whenever you are flying, there are a lot of costs involved and some airlines might have hidden costs that you do not know about until you actually get to the airport.

Whenever you are flying anywhere, you always want to make sure that you know all of the airline fees that might pop up.  For example, baggage, in-flight dining, unaccompanied minors, special seating and even pet traveling are all things that can cause fees.

It is important that you make sure that you do your research whenever you are traveling with a lot of luggage and certainly with pets – as those are two fees that many people do not think about!
