The One Thing You Shouldn’t Drink on a Plane, Mistake Airfares from Europe & More
Highlights and headlines from around the web:
- The questionable safety of hot water on planes has cropped up again in the news with Refinery 29 highlighting a Business Insider post from a few months ago. I do drink the hot tea on on my early morning flights and though it sometimes taste strange (mostly hints of leftover coffee grounds) I’ve never had a problem. Do you drink the hot water on flights?
Video from original Business Insider article:
- Major airlines in the middle east are suspending flights to/from Qatar starting today and tomorrow. Travel on Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad Airways, FlyDubai, Air Arabia, Saudi Arabian Airlines, Gulf Air, and Egypt Air will be affected.
- If you’ll be in Europe this fall (and not at risk from a potential US travel ban) check out this mistake deal post from Scott’s Cheap Flights.  Round trip flights from major European cities to major US hubs September-January, including Christmas and New Years, from €100s-200s.
- United is suspending flights to Venezuela starting July 1.
