All the things we miss most about the air travel of yesteryear - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s one of the most lamented casualties of the modern aviation era: not being able to go to the gate with your loved ones. But could this most romantic of aviation perks be about to make a return – albeit in a suitably safe way? That’s the hope of the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA), which has just announced a trial programme to allow pre-screened individuals who aren’t travelling to go airside at 13 US airports.

Read excerpt
What’s worse than a budget flight? A very long budget flight. And I speak from experience on that front. Until recently, my previous record was just more than six hours, on Wizz Air’s cramp-inducing route from Dubai to Budapest, one of the airline’s 10 longest routes. Perhaps I should have left it at that. But when I saw the news about Air Arabia’s new service from Gatwick to Sharjah earlier this year, my ears pricked up. By my calculation, the return leg must be the world’s longest proper, sing
