Good afternoon from the Windy City. I’m downroute on a trip, but it is still Saturday, so I need to publish a list of links with some witty commentary.
It’s time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Next week
I’m still downroute at the minute, but I’ll be flying again as next week progresses. As such, things are in the state I mentioned last week. There’s a strong chance we’ll not be publishing on Monday or Tuesday next week, but we should be back to some sense of normality by Thursday at the latest.
Or for whatever counts as normal here.
Until then, Happy Landings!
