Illustration: ISTOCK (2)Treatment for a life-or-death midair medical emergency can depend on which plane you happen to be on. More than 20 million Americans are estimated to have food allergies, based on data from the National Center for Health Statistics, yet not every commercial plane is stocked with epinephrine autoinjectors. The devices, commonly referred to by the brand name EpiPen, are the most critical treatment for potentially life-threatening allergic reactions known as anaphylaxis, doctors say.

The airlines said in an investor presentation that they expect to have greater than 50% market share in Hawaii should the deal receive regulatory approval. The companies estimate that the deal will close within 12 to 18 months.

Gross/Minneapolis Star Tribune/ZUMA PRESSFinding an airport that gets everything right is a fool’s errand. Orlando might have great food and shopping, but it is located in an area with lousy weather. Los Angeles International outperforms other airports on fast times through security, according to federal data, but the traffic on the way to the airport can be ghastly.

No one enjoys waiting in long lines at airport security or suffering through a departure delay. Some airports do a better job of making those miseries less miserable. LaGuardia Airport in New York and Orlando International Airport in Florida are infamous among travelers for their problems with on-time arrivals and departure delays. The reasons are largely the same: Both are located in highly trafficked airspace and manage inclement weather and air-traffic control issues.

Flights to Europe Are Becoming Cheap Again
  + stars: | 2023-11-07 | by ( Jacob Passy | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Flying to Europe in 2024 without spending a fortune is in the cards after a long stretch of sky-high prices. Airlines have added new routes between the U.S. and Europe and announced plans to increase flights on some routes next spring and summer. The added capacity means travelers can get a break from the run of high airfares in the past couple of years. Some prices are still high—the average cost of round-trip airfare to Barcelona is over $1,000, according to travel-search website Kayak. But deals now exist that didn’t before, and industry watchers say they expect more to come.
