American Airlines plane incidents at Chicago's O'Hare airport - CNN.com
2008-12-25 05:10:00 More at CNN.com: “(CNN) -- A passenger jet preparing to take off from the airport skidded off the runway at Chicago, Illinois' O'Hare and another plane was forced to return there after engine problems were reported, officials said.American Airlines Flight 1544 -- an MD-80 carrying 54 passengers and a crew of five -- was taxiing into takeoff position on Runway 22-L when it hit an icy patch, said airline spokeswoman Mary Frances Fagan.No one was hurt, Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Elizabeth Isham Cory said.The left tires and the nose tires slid onto the grass next to the taxiway, she said.”-- I can't remember a time when so many incidents of delays and accidents happened in such a small window of time. I wonder if this is tied to the poor maintainance spending of the airlines and the need for airport upgrades in general?

Sitting At Gate B56 At Denver International Airport - Flight Delayed
2008-12-24 02:09:00 If you're on Twitter you may have noticed - or may not have seen -- that I just landed in Denver. But here I am after having caught a flight from Oakland to this hub with the intent of catching another flight to Atlanta. That flight, UAL 7515, which was to leave at about 7 PM, was delayed to 9:19 PM, giving me time to catch up on stuff like blogging. I think this is the fourth time I've been at DIA this year, the other three trips courtesy of my work at the Democratic National Convention. But regardless of the city -- Denver, New York, Chicago, Atlanta -- I love to fly. To me, since air travel became so accessible to so many people due to low fares, one can gain the measure of America in an airport: fashion, concerns, and overall mood. The mood I would describe as "mellow". It certainly feels like the holiday season but it's almost like people are going through the motion of traveling but don't have a lot of gifts to give. I do...

Did I mention I’ve been here since 7AM? Seriously, worst day ever. Thankfully, in the Maple Leaf Lounge where Air Canada was kind enough to bump me to in an effort to make up for their inexcusable incompetence, there is free WiFi. Which means I now have the abilitty to fire off a few random thoughts on what little TV I was able to watch last night. So let the ‘time killing’ commence…. (more…)

KANYE WEST ARRESTED AT L.A AIRPORT
2008-09-12 20:14:00 LOS ANGELES - Kanye West's notoriously fickle temper boiled over Thursday, resulting in his arrest for apparently helping smash a paparazzo's camera on the floor at Los Angeles International Airport.Police arrested the music superstar shortly before 8 a.m. He and his manager, Don Crowley, were booked for investigation of felony vandalism, although prosecutors will determine what charges they might face.West was released from police custody by Thursday afternoon.
