The ultimate British Christmas holiday checklist (if you’re American)
If, as Charles Dickens had it, “there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour,” then Britain is the place to be for Christmas.

Southwest Airlines to end cabin service earlier on flights to reduce chance of injury
Beginning on Dec. 4, a company spokesperson said, flight attendants will start preparing the cabin for landing at an altitude of 18,000 feet (5,486 meters) instead of 10,000 feet (3,048 meters). The change in procedure is designed to “reduce the risk of in-flight turbulence injuries” for crew members and passengers, the company said.
