We’ve reached the end of the week again, where I’ve spent time typing, scheming and trying to understand the meaning of sanity. It must be time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Next Week
I’m beavering away at things as I head into a big part of my spring travel season, so there’s lots going on in the background – to put it bluntly.
We’ll have the last part of the Bucharest Trip reports next week too to keep you entertained, as well as our usual mix of news and views
Until then, Happy Landings!
