Apologies that this coming a bit later than usual…

1. I posted a few weeks ago that JetBlue wants to start some new Cancun flights. Well now they’re officially announced.
2. JetBlue will also start flying between Long Beach and San Francisco.
3. After some confusion and anger over American’s checked baggage policy for active duty military members, the airline changed its policy.
4. Meanwhile, other airlines (Southwest, Delta, United, AirTran, Continental)  issued press releases (or blog posts) about their baggage policies for active military (some have which have changed). Bonus points for United for offering space available upgrades to Economy Plus.
5. American is going to retire its MD-80s and acquire more 737-800s a bit faster.
6. The slot drama continues.
7. The DHL-UPS deal is starting to get messy.
