🟢 #DidYouKnow | In 1972, Lufthansa Cargo decided the best way to prove a Boeing 747-200F’s capacity was to turn it into the world’s highest-flying VW dealership, loading all 72 Volkswagen Beetles aboard just to show it could. #Airways #News

Eero Saarinen's mobile lounges at Dulles were a mobility solution that “bridged architecture and transportation design," as @langealexandra.bsky.social put in 2006.
The lounges are a relic of the jet age that deserve more than a politically-tinged send off.

We talk these days about the differences between revenue-based and distance-based airline loyalty programs.
But in the mid-90s Cyprus Airways was literally distance based. You earned credit for 10% of miles flown, and redeemed based on the distance flown in the award trip.
