In the summer of 2003, the airline removed a row of seats, reducing capacity to 156 seats and increasing the legroom at some chairs to 34 inches. Late in 2006, JetBlue removed another row. That left 150 seats and pitch of 34 to 36 inches at every chair. Now JetBlue has created a virtual premium-class section. Beginning April 1, six rows (2-5 up front and 10-11, the emergency rows) will offer 38 inches of seat pitch. All of the other rows will offer 34 inches. How do you snare a seat in those 38-inch rows?Pay a $10-to-$20 <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.orbitz.com\" target=\"_blank\">airfare<\/a><\/strong> premium each way, depending on the length of the flight.

The 98-year-old building has been closed since 1999, but the property is now up and running again as a 332-room <strong>Renaissance Hotel<\/strong>. And in case you&#8217;ve forgotten, the term &quot;smoke-filled room&quot; originated at the Blackstone when Republican leaders met there and picked Warren G. Harding as the 1920 nominee while the party regulars were convening at the Chicago Coliseum. &#8230; <strong>Ritz-Carlton<\/strong> has opened its fourth hotel in China. The 351-room property in <strong>Guangzhou<\/strong> has six dining rooms, a fitness center and a spa. &#8230; The old Hilton Suites hotel in <strong>North Dallas<\/strong> is receiving a $10 million update and will be reflagged as a <strong>Le Meridien<\/strong> hotel.

On September 1, Emirates will add its longest nonstop haul yet, linking <strong>Los Angeles<\/strong> and <strong>Dubai.<\/strong> The 8,339-mile route will run about 16.5 hours to LAX and 16 hours to Dubai and will be flown with Boeing 777-200LRs.

Apparently it&#8217;s Newark-Calgary, which has never had nonstop service before. But <strong>Air Canada<\/strong> announced it would begin flying the route on June 16 using Airbus A319s. Then WestJet decided it would begin service between the two cities on June 2. &#8230; <strong>Delta Air Lines<\/strong> is closing nine of its Crown Room airport clubs beginning this month.

The clubs in <strong>Seattle<\/strong>, <strong>Honolulu<\/strong>, <strong>San Juan<\/strong>, <strong>Phoenix<\/strong>, <strong>Denver<\/strong>, <strong>London\/Gatwick<\/strong>, <strong>Kansas City<\/strong>, the old lounge at <strong>Boston Logan<\/strong> and one of the clubs at Delta&#8217;s <strong>Cincinnati<\/strong> hub.

Checked bags above the 50-pound<br \/>\nfree limit will cost $80 (up to 70 pounds) or $150 (up to 100 pounds).<br \/>\nExtra bags, which had cost a flat $75 each, now cost between $80 and<br \/>\n$180 each. And while it has not yet officially posted the change, a top<br \/>\nDelta executive told an investment conference in late March that the<br \/>\nairline would begin charging passengers to check a second bag. The<br \/>\nsecond-bag fee, $25 each way, matches the charge already imposed by <strong>United<\/strong> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/App\/GDDC?deal_id=air-us-airways\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>US Airways<\/strong><\/a>. All of those fees go into effect in May. &#8230; Effective April 1, <strong>Singapore Airlines<\/strong><br \/>\nwill reduce the checked-bag allowance for passengers to and from the<br \/>\nUnited States. The airline says bags cannot weigh more than 50 pounds<br \/>\neach, down from the current 70-pound limit. The change affects fliers<br \/>\nin all cabins.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NEED TO KNOW<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>On-the-road intelligence to help you travel smarter:<\/strong> Although<br \/>\nthe United States switched to Daylight Saving Time in early March, most<br \/>\nof the rest of the world didn&#8217;t switch until the end of the month.

It&#8217;s the second<br \/>\ntime since 9\/11 that Aloha has entered bankruptcy. Aloha blamed<br \/>\n&quot;predatory pricing&quot; from go!, the start-up inter-island carrier owned<br \/>\nby Mesa Air. A federal bankruptcy judge last year ordered Mesa to pay<br \/>\n$80 million to <strong>Hawaiian Airlines<\/strong> because it used proprietary<br \/>\ndata to launch go! in 2006. &#8230; Most of the legacy carriers reduced<br \/>\nfuel hedging programs in the first quarter of the year. So now that oil<br \/>\nprices have settled in at the $100-a-barrel mark, they face additional<br \/>\nfuel bills of about $10 billion this year. That has sent them into a<br \/>\nfrenzy of fleet and staff reductions. Delta, United and US Airways<br \/>\nannounced that they would dump dozens of less fuel-efficient planes and<br \/>\nslash domestic seat capacity by as much as 5 percent. Delta also<br \/>\noffered a buyout to 30,000 employees and hopes that 2,000 people will<br \/>\naccept.<\/p>\n<p><em>Read more &quot;On the Road with Joe Brancatelli&quot; at<br \/>\n<strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/App\/PerformMDLPDealsContent?deal_id=roadwarrior&amp;cnt=OVI\">roadwarrior.orbitz.com<\/a><\/strong>. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nCopyright 2008 by Joe Brancatelli.
