In-flight Wifi — A First...
I’ve bemoaned the arrival of wifi in the sky — the plane cabin is one of the last places where one could be blisfully untethered from e-mail — but felt obliged to try it today out of professional curiosity. I’m currently flying...
San Jose Recap...
I made a quick, yet pleasant, trip to San Jose to help facilitate the Executive Council’s Value-based Sustainability Summit for which I served as consulting editorial director. Admittedly a bit biased, I found it to be an interesting day with...
The Quest for Santa Cruz Wines...
I’ll be moderating at the upcoming Value-based Sustainability summit being held in San Jose on January 26. You know that I can’t visit any city without trying to squeeze in a little culture and fun. With just a couple of hours free on...
Up in the Air 2010...
As we head toward a new year it is a good time to look at what lies ahead when we head to the airport. In a phrase, it isn’t pretty. The thwarted on-board bombing on a Northwest flight headed from Amsterdam to Detroit portends increased airport...
The Hug Train…Traveling ...
This is the time of the travel year when most of us are thinking about: a) Santa traveling around the world, pulling off just-in-time delivery once again or b) getting stuck somewhere in intermodal transit system as we make our way over the hills...
Airline Seat Fees Becoming Mor...
If you find yourself sitting in coach more often these days, and who among us has not had tighter restrictions put on travel, you likely know the “pleasure” of having your knees wedged into a seat back as you fly.
Increasingly, there...
Where’s that Flight Atte...
Check the overhead bin! As we head into this hellish travel weekend, we thought we’d share this humorous piece by a former Northwest Airlines flight attendant:
I was a sound sleep. Suddenly I woke to a voice on the public address system: “Morning,...
Volunteer, Stay Free...
Here’s one of the best promotions we’ve seen in awhile: Sage Hospitality is offering discounted and even free rooms to people who volunteer for a registered 501(3)C non-profit. They call it “Give a Day. Get a Night.” We think...

Offset Your Carbon at SFO
You are rushing through SFO on your way to catch a flight back east or perhaps farther west to the Far East and you feel a twinge of guilt about the carbon emissions that will be required to take you there. Have no fear, the airport is now piloting kiosks — much like an ATM — where you can...
