Thoughts on The Fed, Interest Rates, and My Air Travel

Looks like the folks who were making a bet that Bernanke would cut rates by 1/4 of a point were spot on. The Fed Funds futures said the odds were 75% that we’d see the Fed’s key interest rate drop to 2.0%, and sure enough, that’s what we got. That’s also probably all we’re going ...

Air Travel With Your Dogs in Transport Dog Crates
2008-04-04 18:05:00

Air travel madness
2008-03-19 20:46:00
clipped from africa.reuters.com GENEVA, March 19 (Reuters) - Air travelers on domestic and international flights totaled 4.5 billion in 2007, up 6.4 percent on 2006 and marking a "banner year" for the industry, the global airports body ACI said on Wednesday. The world's top airports were the two leading U.S. hubs of Atlanta, which processed nearly 90 million travelers, and Chicago O'Hare, which handled over 76 million, and London's Heathrow which saw 68 million pass through.This madness can't continue much longer. Soaring oil prices and climate policies will hopefully curb the current destructive trend.

A call for differential surcharge on air travel
2008-03-07 05:57:00
Considering the lean travel season these days, huge discounts are being offered on domestic air tickets. A Bangalore resident, for instance, saw Mumbai airfare advertised at around Rs 500. "But actually, I ended up paying Rs 2,500 for the ticket. So where was the discount?"Like him, many consumers are dejected when they see that stated discounts do not factor in surcharges tagged along with air tickets.Sudhakara Reddy, chairman at Air Passengers' Association of India, gives a breakup of these add-ons. "Rs 225 is the passenger service fee which goes to the government; Rs 1,650 is the fuel surcharge; and Rs 150 is the congestion surcharge. This itself comes to Rs 2,025." Importantly, the chunky fuel surcharge?Rs 1,650?is uniform across all domestic airlines and sectors.Consumer groups, time and again, have called this an unfair practice. "How can you demand the same surcharge for all flights and all sectors? International carriers such as Singapore Airlines have a different surcharge...

Air Travel & Makeup
2008-02-19 20:35:00
At the end of 2006 air travel became a bit easier for those of us who like to travel (carry-on) with what we refer to as the essentials. Not necessarily what our friends at the TSA or our favorite airlines (if there is such a thing) agree with. I know it's been well over a year since the change but I still get requests to go over what is safe to bring on board with you while traveling by air. So if you are planning on taking a trip this year, here's the scoop on the mini makeup needs. You can still pack your suitcase full of sprays, makeup, gels and other goodies larger than 3 oz. but not that I recommend that either.Check out the TSA's site here for the latest on what you can and can't bring in the cabin. Basically the rules are as follows:The following rules apply to all liquids, gels, and aerosols carried through security checkpoints.All liquids, gels and aerosols must be in three-ounce or smaller containers. Larger containers that are half-full or toothpaste tubes rolled up ...

How To Make Air Travel Less Stressful
2008-01-23 08:04:00
As long as you plan ahead, your vacations will be more enjoyable and your air travel will be less stressful. Booking your tickets will be first on your list. As long as you learn how to take on this task a step at a time, getting good airfare deals will not be at all difficult. Be patient and shop around. After you have found a good airline deal, the next decision would be regarding your airline seat. You basically have three options. You could either sit in front, in the middle or at the back. If you happen to have a connecting flight after or will be in a hurry because of an upcoming appointment, it is advisable for you to take the seats in the front area of the plane. The bulkhead seats will be a good choice for you if you are traveling with kids. These seats allow for a larger legroom space as there are no seats in front of you. If you want to steer clear from children, you may want to choose the seats near the exit as children are not allowed on these seats. But you wou...
