A few articles for you on flying comfortably and cruise stocks

This article talks about flying business class cheap on Openskies, an airline I had never heard of. Seems like a good one to be aware of though.

If you don't get to fly business class cheap, this article talks about flying more comfortably in coach. Having flown a number of 14 hour flights in coach, I think I've picked up a few things. Eye covers, good headphones, extra pillows, emergency exit seats if possible, asking at the gate if they can reseat you so you have empty seats around you....

Here's an interesting one if you're looking to invest in stock. I'm no expert but I don't feel that it's an especially good time to get in the market overall. Maybe some cruise stocks are good deals now - I have no idea. But some companies want to sweeten their stock by offering onboard credit for a cruise when you buy some stock.

And this vacation idea - a few months in Rome studying Italian and I'm sure enjoying Italy during study breaks.- is exactly the kind of thing I wish I did more often.
