We’re into the first week of a new year, and it’s been busy – to put it mildly – already.
Welcome to last week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Stories we haven’t covered
Economy Class and Beyond haven’t covered the accident involving the Japan Airlines Airbus A350, nor are we covering the Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 MAX 9 incident, that has resulted in the grounding of some aircraft in the USA for inspection.
As usual, please stick to appropriate sources such as FlightGlobal, The Air Current, The Aviation Herald, Aviation Week Network and so on to get your headlines and facts.

Next Week
We’re planning a few things that are a little different – to put it mildly – than normal next week. As such, we’ll have our usual mix of news, views and updates, as well as a few surprises on the way.
In the mean time, I’ve got to remember what I need to pack… as well as where the chargers are.
Until then, Happy landings!
