I for one prefer to fly on the smaller jets anyway, the more so because the use of smaller jets makes possible direct flights between more destinations.The idea of a slimmed down staircase, as well as adding fuel-saving wingtips, is aimed at lowering the huge double-decker's operating costs and boosting its fuel efficiency.
The provisionally dubbed A380-Plus makeover would add 40-50 seats to increase the standard interior's capacity to more than 600 seats which would help airlines reduce their costs per passenger.

The sweeping staircase is one of the first features passengers see on boarding an A380 and captured attention when the A380 was first rolled out as a 'cruise ship of the skies' in 2005.
However, sales have fallen in recent years due to advances in smaller twin-engined jets, which cost less to fly and maintain.
Me, too. Smaller jets are faster to get on to and get off of.Airbus may ditch A380's grand staircase as sales tumble

"Stoning" is not allowed, ppauper.Woman admits groping another female passenger on board passenger plane
looks like she will get 3 years probation which seems a little light
lol, I realize that cuch's disappointed by that, but I was thinking of a custodial sentence"Stoning" is not allowed, ppauper.Woman admits groping another female passenger on board passenger plane
looks like she will get 3 years probation which seems a little light
it goes back to the "honesty test" thread: would the sentence have been more severe if the groper were a man?The maximum penalty is 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine.
