Our Post on “Bogus Virus Email Affecting Sun Country Airlines,”
had an increase in traffic these last few days. I thought it was just
an isolated case with Sun Country Airlines, as it turns out readers are
emailing me other examples from other airlines facing the same problems.

So far, Frontier Airlines, AirTran Airlines and a few others are
being attacked. Now Northwest Airlines’ customers are under attack by
the email as well.

I think so. I know I am. I tried to stay up late and the TV is constantly on the Olympics. I can't help but think I'm missing all the highlights. YouTube is my best friend at the moment.

I totally agree. I think traditional media and news releases are shifting. Obama has social media nailed. He knows how to reach out the different supporters. He knows most of the Gen-Y crowd are on their cell phones more than older generations. Reach out to us, and you got yourself a presidency.

No, for security purposes.

Now, that I'm thinking about it. Screw security. Even though there are times, I want to call and past the time, I'd rather crash land, than hear my neighbor talk about their muscles and how they pounded beer bongs the previous day. I prefer infiltration of terrorist than an infiltration of bluetooth users. There needs to be "no talking on your cell phones" light, right next to the cigarettes and an FAA warning about the dangers of cell phone use.
