Two callouts, Atlas Air and The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. 1) is this just execs going back and forth from White Plains to Anchorage? 2) I just find this one odd. They’re doing enough corp business to get a shoutout but it raises more questions than answers.

They’ll finally be able to justify some of their crazy F pricing on transcons. Kind of.

The MAX 10s with the premium config will also get the "Aurora" livery treatment. No Chester on the tail if you get the better seats on board.
Alaska 737 with the "Aurora" livery rather than the traditional face on the tail.

If you are planning to “walk in” to Costco for an immunization, just note that in Portland, they don’t actually take walk-ins after 5pm. They seem to arbitrarily apply this rule…

FAA had a radar outage at JFK yesterday morning. Today it moves down the Northeast to PHL Center and impacts EWR. Oh and PHL Center has a staffing shortage for EWR. And there’s VIP ground stops at JFK. And the weather ain’t great.

After pining for months (okay, years), we recently bought a e-cargo bike and it has de-stressed our kid logistics and increased our "let's go to the park!". Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Wow. I had a domain from a company I was part of 15+ years ago and found out today that the auto-renewal I had setup stopped working for some reason over a year ago and GoDaddy (who I didn’t register it through) bought it and is now selling it for $10k. 🙄

Trump's secret police moves to create an enemies list for the White House. The database would have all US voters, their party affiliations and their political preferences. Now for the question: what does any of this have to do with immigration enforcement? www.wired.com/story/ice-pl...

“People of all ages are choosing e-bikes for commuting, running errands, and recreation. For some riders, an e-bike is a way to replace a short trip by car. For others, e-bikes make it possible to ride year-round, carry more, or travel farther.” (And please enjoy this very staged photo of me. 😆)

Guys, this is for real. Senate GOP and the administration want to pass a law that outlaws bikelanes on the 160K mile National Highway System. Imagine if adding protected bikelanes to many arterials would suddenly be against the law. Let’s not allow this.

Arrested for taking a flight that was booked with stolen miles. Can't find a news story, but it wouldn't surprise me if he booked via a broker who had a bunch of stolen accounts. Gives the broker some amount of money less than a retail fare and gets a mileage ticket. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoyd...
