#46 - 29 days in February means not only one day more. It has challenges for the aviation when it comes to statistics and IT. Statistics can be misleading and give wrong impressions as there is one day more to transport cargo and people.

Another incident at the baggage belt was funny at Düsseldorf Airport. 1200 suitcases could be not reunited immediately with their owner as the system did not accept the 29th as a date.

What is you experience with the 29th? Is it a day which brings you misfortune?

#44 - Eurowings is not famous for their service. The differentiation between SMART and BASIC got bigger now. The SMART rate is a hand luggage only and now they removed the free airport check in. Eurowings wants to charge 5 Euros per check in. When you book it in advance you get a 50% discount and just have to pay 2.50 Euro. You are only allowed to have a carry-on of 8kg in the size of 55x40x23cm and a smaller personal item.

This is definitely an enhancement with negative changes, but why does the marketing department always write this in way you get the feeling they give you a present?

"From March 2020, Eurowings will ask its BASIC customers to only check in online for their flight. This leads to significantly reduced queues at the airports, which in turn saves our customers time. BASIC passengers who would like to continue checking in at the airport can of course flexibly book this option in advance as an additional service."

#16 - Scandals around the development of the Boeing 737MAX are not ending. When you think you have heard it all, then Boeing makes it worse. The gave over 100 emails to the government and revealed some disturbing conversations. "designed by clowns who are supervised by monkeys","looks like my Jedi trick did work","own stupidity" or just "Idiots". That are quo's that you could read in the mails. Boeing told airlines not to buy simulators, as authorities in the US, Canada, Europe, China, Malaysia and Argentina said that an app on iPad is enough for a 737NG pilot to fly a Boeing 737MAX.

Not only the language is disturbing, also that an airline was stopped to invest into safety. But we will see how Boeing is going to change corporate culture.
