Spanish airport under consideration for new migrant arrival centre

The European Commission has decided to delay the introduction of the Entry/Exit System (EES), the bloc's automated registry for short-stay travellers that was expected to come into force on 10 November.

United Airlines said corporate revenues were up 13% in the third quarter and that demand for premium travel remained resilient. 

Ancillary fees were once a nice little add-on for airlines. Now they are becoming more and more of a revenue driver.

The European Union's new Entry/Exit System or EES was set to go into effect for travelers entering as many as 29 participating countries across the bloc next month.

Good morning from Skift. It’s Tuesday, October 15, 2024, and here’s what you need to know about the business of travel today. 

It's 12 p.m. on Thursday and I am running through the streets of Brooklyn. I have to be out of New York City and on the highway north to reach Storm King Art Center by 3 p.m., when Charli XCX will be bumping her new album at a surprise listening party. Streaming in from directions unknown, hundreds of other fans have likewise shirked their responsibilities for the day—skipping work and school, canceling plans, ditching kids with partners—and booked it to this 500-acre sculpture park in New Windsor, New York, on the vague premise of exclusively hearing Charli XCX's latest music the day before the album's release. Some have taken four-hour trains; others, carpooled with strangers; the most die-hard brats are seeing her for the fourth or fifth time, after having followed her to California, Spain, and beyond. For her part, I know Charli herself will be on a plane the minute the show ends, given she's in the middle of her North America tour.
