Kulula Airlines - an Airline with a Sense of Humor!

Kulula Airlines is a low-cost South-African airline that doesn't take itself too seriously. Here's a picture of one of their planes - named "This Way Up".


This is just one of several planes adorned with very creative - and fun - themes. One is "Flying 101" and another is named "Camouflage".

Here's a link to their website fleet photo gallery.

If that won't open, just go to www.kulula.com and enter the gallery from the home page.

Too bad Kulula doesn't fly in the U.S.!

Cheers,

Dick

Travel Writers are Dinks (part 4)

Occasionally, I read one of those ubiquitous "Travel Tips" articles that pop up on a daily basis - just to get a few laughs.

Most of them belabor the obvious and seem to show that they think their readers are about 4 years old! Today's case in point: "Ten Tips for Smoother Trips" imparts such wisdom as:
  • Park with your car's nose out.
  • Don't pack urgent items in your checked luggage.
  • Have your hotel contact information with you.
  • If you travel to a given foreign country frequently, keep your leftover currency on hand for future visits.
  • Don't forget to tip Skycaps. They depend on tips to make their living.
  • Remember your flight number.
Think I'm making this up or embellishing it? Well, I'm not - sadly!
These people actually get paid for writing this crap!

Happy Traveling!
