Does Tighter Airline Security Mean New Opportunities For
Charter Ops?
Longer and longer lines
at the ticket counter as passengers check bags they used to carry
on. Longer and longer waits at baggage claim to retrieve those
bags... more and more of which are being left behind by a luggage
system that's suddenly strained to capacity.
Is it any wonder that charter inquiries are up -- in some cases
-- by 60-percent since new security restrictions on commercial air
travel were enacted last Thursday? But even with that formidable
statistic... can business aviation capitalize on this new security
situation?
Jim Coyne, president of the National Air Transportation
Association, says... yes.
This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing --
available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format, or an expanded
Aero-Briefing -- where you'll hear these stories:
...Trouble brewing in baggage claim as more and more
passengers check their luggage...
...Flights at Heathrow are down by 20-percent as the
security crackdown is eased just a little...
...And a couple of scares point out the heightened sense of
awareness on flights both at home and in the UK....

Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate
products.
- ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A
quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct
and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few
minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events... and it only
takes a few minutes of your time.
- ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN
Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the
day's news. We give you the whole buzz... the news and features
that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid
background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
- ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: Our daily
'Aero-News Special Report' involves a more in-depth view of a story
or two that dominated (or will be dominating) the day's news. Far
more detailed than any single story in our standard ANN Daily
Reports, this is a solid chance to get a close look at the stories
and topics that matter. ASR features may include exclusive
interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's Special Investigative
reports and solid analysis of the stories that will have undeniable
impact on the world of aviation and aerospace.
Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep
those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about
what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and
aerospace.
