This is the start of the new American Airlines, at least that's the hope.

This ruling also impacts business travelers crossing borders with sensitive corporate documents, and provides some new protections, although it is destined to make its way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Smart move from Google to show off its capabilities and educate on possible future of advertising and branded content, but use of Google+ login? Ugh.

This is Google Maps as the center of your local travel needs, though still needs to catch up with similar much more advanced functionalities on Google Maps on Android.

This is a big year for HomeAway: It is retooling its business model, and will attempt to get its mobile products in order. Good thing it has experts to lean on.

The ruling would restrict flight crews’ use of mobile devices beyond critical points of flight departure and landing, but would prove difficult to enforce with crews 30,000 feet above the regulators.

JetBlue is intent on increasing its fee revenue, but if it ultimately decides to offer free Wi-Fi on its flights on an ongoing basis, that would certainly be a development that other airlines will have to pay attention to.

In other words, free-wifi across all country will be a huge marketing coup for Australia, in press and of course among travelers. Though unlikely it will happen country-wide.
