You may have also noticed that I skipped my regular features this week, it’s been a busy week with flying but my regular postings will resume next week. In the mean time I had the honor of doing a guest post for my friend Fish over at Flying with Fish. Steven Frischling aka, Fish is an amazing photographer, and travel strategist. Fish has flown over a million miles since he began tracking his travels in 2005. Trust me when I say he has great advice for air travel. One of my favorite posts is “Ten ways to rock the full flight and increase your your travel karma.”

And last but not least, my friend Gailen David aka, The Sky Steward has moved from blogspot to his own dot com. If you’ve never visited The Sky Steward you are in for a treat! I love Jetiquette! One of my favorite videos is “Dirty feet on the plane” check it out:

Be sure to visit Gailen at his new address, dearskysteward.com
