- Another passenger peeing at their seat. This has become a thing.
- Delta has doubled its order for Gogo 2ku to over 600 aircraft. 2ku satellite internet is super fast and works even when you’re still on the ground. They can’t get these installed fast enough.

- 1000 free miles for joining Star Alliance program TAP Air Portugal and another 2000 miles when you earn something in your account.
Thanks for the link on elite status with SLH.
Just to report my experience, I followed the link above and signed up, but the confirmation email or the member webpage do not state that I did get the status!
OMAAT comments on the hotel status show you have to use the first link in the body of the page ‘join the club’. It worked for me yesterday…
