TGIF – Time For A Few Laughs……Start Your Day Here!!

Once in a while I like to resurrect the videos that I’ve linked to below. Primarily because they are extremely funny and make me laugh everytime I watch them. They also serve as a training video for everyone as to WHAT NOT TO DO as a frequent and elite traveler. That sounded pretentious didn’t….

Anyway, enjoy these videos and I hope it sets the right tone for your Friday!!!

LufthansaFlyer Takes Delivery Of It’s 747-8i — Lufthansa May Be Jealous…..

LufthansaFlyer.com is pleased to announce that it has taken delivery of it’s own Lufthansa 747-8i airliner. The ceremony was quite uneventful with just the mailman asking for a signature for the box that we’ve been waiting on for over 6 weeks! It would not disappoint as you will see in the images below. A few of the Ducks that were home at the time came out and admired the aircraft as well. I must admit, the craftsmanship is fantastic and it’ll be a great addition to my “real-life” office. Next up will be the Air New Zealand “All Blacks” 777 in 3-4 weeks. Work has also started on the ANA “Snoopy” tribute 747-400.
