several cruise lines, and locations

How does
the airconditioning
work?
The air-conditioning
system on a plane works
hard, especially during summer, to keep the air in the cabin
at a comfortable temperature.
All cabin air comes from
the engines, which compress
outside air and then push it
into the air-conditioning unit.
The unit cools, filters, and then
pushes the air into the cabin
through ducts near the overhead bins and vents above your
seat. Every three to five minutes, the air is drawn out of the
cabin and refreshed with clean
air from the air conditioner.

US Airways now offers Track Your Bags, which lets you follow the
progress of your luggage from check-in at the ticket counter to
arrival at your final destination. Visit baggagetracker.usairways.com
to get real-time information for your checked luggage. At the
website, enter your last name and the bag tag number or the
confirmation code from your baggage claim ticket.
Most smart phones and mobile devices
have a setting known as airplane mode.
This setting prevents the device from sending and
receiving calls, texts,
emails, and performing
other functions
that require
wireless signals,
which can
interfere with
the plane’s
instruments.
On many
devices,
you can
still listen to
music, play
games, watch
videos, and
check your calendar in airplane mode. Flight attendants will make
an announcement when it’s OK to use approved
electronic devices.
