Amazing! No surprise the deal has already been snapped up. It's definitely worth all the publicity they will get out of these fantastic sales.

I've not done this trip, although it's floated up my destinations list and hopefully will be something we can do in a few years. You've an awful lot of travel packed into two weeks, and the only efficient way to do much of it is to rent a car. You can do it by buses and trains, but that would add days to the journey and take away from your valuable travel experiences. So while expensive, a car will help you get the most out of your travel days and with three people won't be prohibitively...

I expect it will be one the finest regional jets made. I hope they succeed.

I know turboprops are safe but I always feel uneasy when I fly in one.

Iran is also buying some turboprops, from ATR, which is jointly owned by Airbus and an Italian company. The deal includes 20 firm orders and 20 optionals, but didn't specify the cost, or the possible mix of ATR42 (45-seat) and ATR72 (70-seat) models.

How amazingly self-righteous and stupid. Jet-lag and deep vein thrombosis are related to dehydration, and a traveler can't buy a bottle of water in SFO anymore to take with them on a flight (remember, you can't bring a bottle of aqua with you through TSA). Plastics of this type are highly recyclable. Time to avoid SFO on my travels.

It takes a l-o-o-o-ong time to fly from the western USA to Tanzania, at the limits of my travel endurance really.  But I’m about to head out on one of my greatest adventures.
