Danke, do something

United Airlines on Friday increased its checked-baggage fees by $5, following a similar move in January by JetBlue Airways.
The first checked bag is now $35 each way, the second, $45. Travelers can avoid the increase by prepaying for bags in advance. The checked-bag prices remain $30 and $40 if the fee is paid at any time before online check-in.

[FONT=&quot]Dana Ghazi Mustafa is the [/FONT]North Carolina[FONT=&quot] woman who threatened to “stab [/FONT]everyone” during a flight from Germany to Virginia on February 22, 2020. According to a criminal affidavit, Mustafa also said she would kill herself, adding, “I’m Palestinian! That’s how we get down.”

Prosecutors with the Eastern District of Virginia say Mustafa kicked a Federal Air Marshal and resisted being handcuffed after a flight attendant told her she was not allowed to smoke on the plane. The arresting officer said Mustafa smelled strongly of alcohol at the time.
If convicted of assaulting a federal agent, Mustafa faces a maximum sentence of eight years behind bars. A judge decided she could be released from custody, but Mustafa’s travel was limited and she was ordered to undergo mental health testing.

Heavy reached out to Mustafa’s defense attorney via email, who responded: “We will not be commenting at this time.”
Here’s what you need to know.

Vice President Pence is bringing the CEOs of major airlines to the White House on Wednesday to press for what he described as "greater cooperation" on data that public health officials use to track down passengers when someone on a flight is later found to have coronavirus.
"We'll be meeting with the CEOs of all the major airline carriers here," Pence told reporters. "The topic will be contact tracing data and how we can have a stronger relationship in the 11 airports that have been assisting us with screening personnel coming back into the country."

United Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz said on Wednesday that the airline would make significant cuts to its flight network and implement a series of cost reductions, as the coronavirus outbreak continues to wreak havoc on the airline industry in the US and worldwide.
In a memo to employees sent by Munoz and United president Scott Kirby — who is set to take over from Munoz later this year — said that the airline would cut 20% of its international schedule and 10% of its domestic flights in April, with similar cuts in May.
The international network downsizing includes already-announced schedule reductions to several regions in Asia, including South Korea and Japan, as well as suspended routes to China and Hong Kong.
The domestic service reductions also include several changes to Canada routes. Munoz and Kirby said that the changes would be announced on March 7.
In addition to the flight reductions, Munoz and Kirby said that employees would be offered the option to apply for a voluntary, unpaid leave of absence, or a voluntary reduced schedule. The airline will also suspend all new hiring through at least June 30, and postponing new-hire training classes.
Finally, the airline will postpone salary raises for management and administrative employees. That excludes employees covered by collective bargaining agreements.

Things are getting ugly. I hope this passes soon, or I may have to find work at one of Oyarde's casinos.
 
It occurs to me that Danke's frequent visits to China, and the outbreak of coronavirus, could be related.

Did Danke do something?

It is getting bad, I hope my company doesn't declare bankruptcy again. they recently did big stock buy backs instead of saving the cash for a raining day like this.
 
I'm guessing @oyarde has something to do with this as there is the Red Lake Injun Reservation there.

No this is intended for religious practice . Asians like Viets , some Chinese etc burn fake money as an offering to the deceased for holidays . This is called various things like Joss paper , dark money , ghost money etc . This is an offering to the god of death they observe and is a legitimate religious practice dating at least to 1000 BC . It is believed by them that these offerings allow them to leave the neutral underworld and enter heaven .Govt interference in this is a violation of these peoples religious belief . If the govt is opposed they should not accept immigrants from these countries . Your govt is run by uneducated and poorly performing sub chiefs . Here the Great Oyarde rules wisely
