Senior Memories: When It’s Springtime in Hawaii |
|
|
|
Visiting Editor BBL, Seattle WA: How can you tell it's springtime in Hawaii? The weather is so warm and beautiful all year long. My first visit was love at first sight with the picturesque islands. It was in February 1945.
I was a 19-year-old sailor, and our troop ship eased into a cove near a beach area on the big island of Hawaii, and stood offshore. Then the quiet beauty was shattered by a very noisy interruption.
Cool tropical breezes were blowing. The surf was gentle. The palm trees were swaying. There were big, fluffy clouds in the sky, and Marine aircraft were bombing the hell out of the beach. The squawk box blared, "Land the landing force!"

Dispelling Some Myths About Air Travel |
|
|
|
Some people wrongly believe airliners recirculate dirty coughed and sneezed cabin air that could make vulnerable seniors sick. In today's modern airliners, the air is captured and thoroughly filtered, and along with mostly outside air, is regularly pumped throughout the passenger areas.
Cabin air is totally replaced about every 20 minutes. On the ground, inspectors constantly check the air filter systems of aircraft, and there has never been any scientific proof of foul cabin air making any passengers sick.

Need Help In The Airport And Boarding My Flight |
|
|
|
Q: I fell recently, and although nothing was broken, my bandaged knee makes walking and standing difficult. For the next two months, business requires flying in and out of major cities, and I may have problems getting around inside airports. How do I get permission to go through security without lining up, and then allowed to get aboard early? OLR, Tampa FL
A: First, get a note from your doctor on his/her official stationery. It should explain your medical problem, and ask for priority in airport security and when boarding. Keep the original on your person and a copy in your baggage.
