You Can't Stop At One

If cruise lines want us to keep pimping their product, pumpkins, they should not buy the cow. Or is it the milk? Anyhow, yesterday Open Jaw reported  that Norwegian has bought a retail channel – an agency called Sixthman.


They say it’s a one off - a special situation. And it won’t happen again. (My straying 2nd husband sputtered the same thing whenever I let him up for air. Of course, having consigned his goods to another channel once – it wasn’t long before he was canalling a bevy of buffed brazilians making it a 2 off, a 3 off, a 4 off, etc. Basically, he was getting a lot of off.)


Back in South Korea, Dunkin' Donuts is dousing buses with coffee scent so that folks will buy more of the stuff. Apparently sales are way up. Where are the coconut scented brochures, people?

And last but not least, we go down under on Virgin Australia whose new 'deportment' program is training flight attendants to be less sexy. This is part of a push to attract more business travellers. Crikey. It must be time for me to call it a decade.
