Turbulence on Tokyo-bound flight injured passengers


Tokyo, one of the most technologically advanced cities in the world but it is far from being imune to the turbulence that often menaces its airports... As a matter of fact, today 50 passengers were injured on a flight that was menaced as you may read on the msnbc.com article just below:


"

TOKYO - Severe turbulence jolted a Tokyo-bound Northwest Airlines flight Friday from Manila, injuring about 50 passengers and crew members, officials said.

Four passengers were hospitalized, including one person with a serious neck injury, said Masashi Takahashi, spokesman for Northwest Airlines in Tokyo.

The 46 others, including seven crew members, received light injuries, he said.

Turbulence hit the plane while it was circling off the coast of Chiba, east of Tokyo, about 30 minutes before landing at Tokyo's Narita airport, he said. The plane suddenly descended, sending passengers without their seatbelts fastened lurching from their seats, he said.

The Boeing 747-400 plane carried 408 passengers and 14 crew members.

Japanese TV networks showed passengers holding their heads and necks as they left the plane.

"I was so scared, I thought I would die," a passenger who was not named told the TBS television network. "My whole body was lifted into the air."

Fire trucks and ambulances were on the tarmac when the plane landed. One of the passengers was taken away in a wheelchair and another on a stretcher. Some were later wheeled into hospitals on gurneys.

Most of the passengers were believed to have been hurt by hitting their heads or twisting their necks.

A low pressure system off eastern Japan on Friday morning created strong winds and large thunderclouds that can cause air turbulence.

Finding the perfect anime chat room

If that’s the case, then you definitely need to have a look at the website to which I have linked just above and see with your own eyes how it will definitely come in handy when you finally decide to meet some new friends who are also lovers of anime!

Traveling to Mexico may be dangerous


Are you planning to visit Mexico anytime soon? Well, the truth is that some US authorities are now advising everyone willing to travel to Mexico to think twice before going there as it is getting a more dangerous place as the days pass! Below is another msnbc.com article telling you the whole story in detail:

"

MEXICO CITY - The U.S. State Department has renewed a travel advisory warning Americans about an increase in violence along the U.S.-Mexico border.

The alert does not recommend staying away from the country or any particular part of it, but advises American to stay away from prostitution and drug-dealing areas.

It recommends visiting only legitimate business and tourist areas.

The alert issued Friday says violent crime is particularly worrisome along the U.S.-Mexico border, where automatic weapons and grenades have been used in clashes between police and drug traffickers.

More than 6,000 people were killed in drug violence in Mexico last year.

Paradise getaways


When thinking about the most beautiful places on earth where you may also enjoy some of the most relaxing moments of your life, what first comes to your mind? Personally, I would say that some paradise islands are definitely the destination that I would go for! Below is another msnbc.com article which will let you know how incredible these islands may be for us:


"

By Lauren Sherman

Feel like you need an escape to a small, secluded spot where the BlackBerry won't get a signal? It might sound idyllic, but getting to a faraway place such as the Cook Islands, an archipelago in the South Pacific, isn't easy if you live anywhere other than Australia or New Zealand. For those traveling from Los Angeles, it takes at least 15 hours to find your way to the main island, Rarotonga.

But it's worth the schlep. For some, the draw is the turquoise lagoon — arguably the bluest in the world — that was named one of the most "unforgettable places to see before you die" by travel photographer and writer Steve Davey. For others, the privacy and pampering are more than enough.

At the Aitutaki Lagoon Resort & Spa, located on the tiny island of Motu Akitua, a two-minute ferry ride from Aitutaki, visitors enjoy the lagoon almost completely undisturbed. The entire resort has just four bungalows and one villa. Rates start at an affordable $210 per couple, per night, in the low season.

Indeed, while fewer of us may be traveling this year — 70 percent of business travelers, for example, predict that they'll be cutting back on 2009 trips, according to a recent survey by Alexandria, Va.-based Association of Corporate Travel Executives — those who can still afford to get away should consider a faraway escape. Not only are hotel rates less expensive than last year, but the price of airfare has dropped, which means travelers can milk more value out of the dollar.

Despite the predicted downward travel trend, surprisingly, 25 percent of affluent travelers plan on taking more leisure trips in 2009 than they did in 2008, while 94 percent plan on spending the same or more on leisure travel in 2009 than they did last year, according to an August 2008 survey conducted by Orlando, Fla.-based marketing firm Y Partnership. Surveyors interviewed more than 2,100 leisure travelers with an annual household income of $150,000 or more.

A new concept of Priceline



Have you ever been to the best hotels in the world and experienced how luxurious they are? If you never had the chance to do it or if you thought the prices would never be accessible for you, then it is about time that you think twice about it! As you may read on the msnbc.com article below, the tendence is for the prices to continue to drop even on the best Hotels:

"
By Sean O'Neill
This recession may be Priceline's finest moment because of the especially deep savings it is offering on hotel rooms and hotel/resort packages booked through its "name-your-own-price" feature.

Here's why: American hotel owners have struggled since the 2001 recession to boost their room rates back up to the profitable levels of the 1990s. Today, they're reluctant to cut their advertised rates. Many hotels are turning to Priceline to deeply discount their rates up to half off and fill their empty beds — without starting a price war.

No wonder that Priceline is probably the largest seller of hotels in the U.S. today. (I can't say for sure that it's the largest because Travelocity is a private company and doesn’t publicize its numbers, though I'm skeptical that Travelocity is number one.)

Priceline has changed a lot in the past couple of years. If you haven't used the site lately, you may have missed some of its recent innovations.

Did you know, for instance, that Priceline lets you "blind book" air/resort packages? You don't have to place a bid because Priceline tells you the total price of a package plus the name of the resort. The twist is that Priceline doesn't tell you the name of the airline or the departure time for the plane tickets automatically packaged with the deal. You will, however, be told the number of layovers and the airports you'll be stopping at, plus the window for flight departures (between 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.). If the flight doesn't work, you can choose from other available flight options. The package will usually cost less than the price of the flight and hotel room booked separately. Savings can total 50 percent.

Interested in just booking a hotel? Here are some up-to-date strategies for making the most of Priceline:

Hotels
While Priceline is a full-fledged booking engine, it's most valuable for its bidding system. As you may know, you don't learn the hotel (or airline, car-rental company or vacation package details) until your bid has been accepted and your credit card has been charged. You'll find out whether your bid has been accepted instantly. (In the past, it took quite a while to hear back.)

Our advice: Research neighborhoods in advance, and consider choosing neighborhoods in financial districts. Right now, Priceline's best deals appear to be for business and upscale hotels.

New airline pricing...




While most people believe that this is not the best time to travel around the world, the truth is that I deffend exactly the opposite! As a matter of fact, now that the economy is still trying to find its way to the stability that it always had in the past, the airlines and most Hotels are offering us better prices to fight crisis... Below is another msnbc.com article which will you help you understand the situation:


"
By Susan Stellin
Whether you call the practice à la carte pricing or nickel-and-diming passengers, the fees most airlines now charge for everything from food and drinks to checked bags aren't going away. With far fewer people flying because of the economy — especially business travelers — many carriers are counting on this revenue more than ever.

"The airlines are doing it because they can't raise fares," says Michael Boyd, president of aviation consulting firm Boyd Group International.

And the companies have found that add-ons can be very profitable. In fact, à la carte pricing has become so successful that analysts are predicting airlines may soon institute the even more nitpicky menu-pricing structure that's been helping Air Canada survive since 2004. For all of its flights, Air Canada offers four fare options, each with a different set of extras, such as a free checked bag or an on-board food voucher. Customers can then add or subtract other services — forgo frequent-flier miles and save $3, for instance, or pay $30 to access the airline's lounges.

For now, most carriers in the U.S. simply say they are sticking with the à la carte approach and considering tacking on more fees in the year to come. So what does this mean for passengers? "
