With the current financial crisis, it would be normal that we could expect airlines to face some quite difficult days while the economy doesn't recover... Keeping this in mind, I recently saw the new which I am putting below on MSN.com and I am sure that you will be amazed by it:
"
American Airlines is limiting the number of passengers on some planes while it orders additional life rafts needed in case of a water landing like the one made this month on the Hudson River by a US Airways jet.
American will allow no more than 228 people including passengers and crew on its Boeing 767-300 aircraft, which normally holds 236 people including a crew of 11, spokesman Tim Wagner said Wednesday.
The planes are mostly used on flights over the Atlantic to Europe, and to Latin America."
