\"Bristol,<\/a>

Bristol, England<\/p><\/div>\n

We are the 94%
\n<\/strong>Want to know which airline wins bragging rights for most on-time departures? According to <ahref=”http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2015\/01\/08\/travel\/most-punctual-airports-and-airlines\/index.html” target=”_blank”>CNN, it’s the tiny city of Bristol, England, whose Bristol Airport has succeeded at getting 94.4% of its planes out of time. The mid-sized airport with the most on-time departures is Osaka (93.2%) and the best large airport is Munich (89%). Lucky be the person flying the ever-popular Bristol to Osaka to Munich route…<\/p>\n

The jailhouse rocks<\/strong>
\nWhere are England’s foodies queuing up for their next great meal? Try prison. According to the BBC<\/a> this week, an organization named Clink Charity is opening restaurants in British jails where inmates serve as chefs and kitchen assistants and cook up Michelin-style cuisine. The idea is to help place them in jobs upon their release. We wonder, does each check comes with a complimentary license plate?<\/p>\n

You snooze, you win<\/strong>
\nCatching a few winks while traveling can be hard, but a few fancy gadgets may do the trick. According to Conde Naste Traveler<\/em><\/a>, consider the PillowFix, an inflatable device that slips into any pillowcase for extra support, the GloToSleep, a sleep mask that includes a blue light that helps enable sleep, and the Sleep Scarf which is worn like a scarf but functions as a pillow. Then there’s Ambien. (We’re just saying).<\/p>\n

Hot in Cleveland<\/strong>
\nThe Cleve is back! Cleveland.com<\/a> noted this week that travel pubs including Fodor’s, New York Times<\/em>, Los Angeles Times<\/em> and Travel & Leisure<\/em> all named C-Town a must-visit city for 2015 thanks to the recent opening of the Museum of Contemporary Art, the happening Gordon Square Arts District and because Americans love a comeback. (No wonder the GOP picked it for its 2016 National Convention).<\/p>\n
