These people are spending $1000's/week on travel and are true frequent flyers. I have a community of several hundred businessmen and women who (this is true) commute from Israel to the US (mainly to NY) on a weekly basis. These people have many concerns very specific to their needs and the industry might want to listen. One timely post was about Air Canada Jazz removing life vests from their flights to save fuel. Fortunately, USAir did not chose that method of weight reduction. I have a blog – http://www.flyerblogs.com that is focused on business air commuters on long distance runs.

We are very happy with the way that enviro.aero has taken off and, in the new year, look forward to playing a bigger role in creating discussion between the aviation industry and the wider travel sector about some of the things we are doing to reduce our environmental footprint. All the best for 2009! Haldane Dodd Air Transport Action Group, Geneva Hi Darren,

After Elliott and you now, I get new readers. That's fantastic. I also discover new blogs. Even better. Cheers, Guillaume Hi Darren,

And if the industry can make time to get to grips with the industry insight held in blogs, I'm sure they will reap the rewards. I'd really like to see an authoritative blog about responsible travel on that list. Any ideas? Interesting list, Darren.
