Most Australian Business Travellers are hoping for increased competition in Business Class, which Qantas has dominated ever since Ansett collapsed 10 years ago

There were three security incidents on domestic flights yesterday. My favorite: the guy who wanted to use the exit door during the flight. 

More to the point, are we in for a spate of freelance terrorism?

What are the best air travel booking sites out there at the moment? A post in this week's Tripatini blog looks at the question.

A Tripatini just asked a good question about fares that absolutely baffled me, but I think some of you can answer it. SeeAsk a Travel Pro.

I'm guessing competition.  You need to stand out from the pack and you can do it with price or service in this business.  Kudos to Frontier.

Frontier Airlines just did something interesting: Lowered fees. Starting with tickets purchased today,

  • the $100 fee for changing itineraries has been halved to $50,
  • Frontier has lowered the $20 checked-bag fee to $15 for people who check in online,
  • According to CNN, "The airline is also getting rid of a flat fee for checked bicycles and will now treat them as standard baggage, so fliers with Classic or Classic Plus tickets can bring their bike as one of their two complimentary checked bags."
  • "Name changes, which let another traveler use the ticket, will also now be allowed for $50 for passengers with Classic and Economy tickets. (Classic Plus fares allow the change for free.)"     

What inspired this, and will it last?
