To the one other person in the world who gives a sh.t about what
flights are based in Domededevo, I was there yesterday and here is
what information there is:
Foreign Airlines listed with office/flights in Domededevo:

Beware of Travelocity's business practices. It's been a real uphill battle
trying to get my money back that they have stolen from me. Check out this
website and see for yourself, it certainly can happen to you!!!

We're flying MSP to Winnipeg r/t.  On the return, do you pre-clear
customs and immigration in YWG like you do at YYZ and YYC?  Or will
that be done in MSP on landing?  Just trying to figure out how much
time I need to allow.  Thanks!

Simply start an unsubstantiated rumor that the pilots of foreign
airlines are Al Queda operatives.
If faced with the decision to fly a US or foreign carrier to your
destination which would you choose?

I'm thinking of going on a short break, i know the British Airways big sale
starts on the 30th Dec.  But on the website it dont say whats on offer, i

I'm BA Executive member and have logged in expecting to find this BA Sale.
All pages are as before and so are prices. In fact some days are now more

We should be allowed to travel to any country.
Bush probably cane out with that order to placate the goddam Cuban
exiles in Florida so the Florida vote will be in his favor come next

God do these people have no life at all. Their need to impress knows no
bounds their need for approval, finally their brief moment in the sun.
They constantly shout...Everyone, all of you... "Listen to me. I know so
much and you must recognize my brillance!"

OK Abdul, drop the almanac!

The FBI has alerted its agents that carrying an almanac is an
indicator pointing to being a terrorist.

Dutch police found a suspicious suitcase in one of Schiphol Airport's
departure lounges and has evacuated lounges 1 and 2. The airport is trying
to process all passengers through departure lounge 3 but there will be
delays.

I was looking for some last minute New Years fares to Vegas on Orbitz
and thought I'd share this American Airlines sale I came across. The
prices look really good across the country--I like the fares to
Florida: Miami, Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale.  Nice to see a sale like this

Business trip to Mongolia and Malaysia. Two new carriers for me (Korean and
Malaysian), and one new airport (ICN (Incheon, Seoul))
