Without a doubt, American Airlines’ most lucrative international market is London Heathrow (LHR), given that it’s also a hub for joint venture partner British Airways.

The Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), which represents American Airlines’ 28,000 flight attendants, isn’t happy with management right now. Recently, the union issued a vote of no confidence in CEO Robert Isom, which is the first time the union has ever done that. That’s not the extent of the drama, though. The union is now accusing Isom of trying to close the earnings gap with Delta and United by downgrading layover hotels in order to cut costs. Okay, unless crews are laying over at Amans, I think it’s going to take a little more than that to close the…

Speaking British broadcasters on March 6, 2026, UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy suggested that British aircraft could lawfully strike Iranian missile sites in self-defense, if needed to prevent attacks on British personnel or interests in the Middle East. Lammy’s statement signals how far London’s defensive posture has expanded as the conflict spills across the wider region.   Lammy said that the UK would support defensive action and indicated that hitting Iranian launch sites or other military targets used to prepare attacks could be considered legal under that framework. His remarks build on the British government’s published position that British involvement is tied to collective self-defense, and to necessary, proportionate action against ongoing attacks.   Prime Minister Keir Starmer had already outlined…

European and Nordic countries are moving closer to NATO’s nuclear posture in ways that the Kremlin considers destabilizing.   Helsinki moves to remove Cold War-era restriction  Finland’s government said on March 5, 2026, that…
