Review: WestJet Plus is a Surprisingly Enjoyable Experience
WestJet, Canada's original low-cost-carrier, is making a rather rapid transition to a full-service carrier. Nowhere is this more clear than in the airline's increasingly premium Plus product. Launched as a premium economy product, Plus was originally, rather standard and resembled an economy comfort product. Over time, additional amenities were added and on new aircraft, a new business class product was launched.

I Couldn’t Use My American Express Card at the American Express Lounge Mexico City
During a recent visit to the American Express, The Centurion Longe Mexico City, credit card readers went down which kept servers from accepting American Express credit cards.

Some servers claimed the dessert would be on the house while others insisted I had to stay in the lounge until the credit card readers went back up.

The first American Airlines aircraft to receive the service was N102UW previously operated by US Airways. Gogo 2Ku has been available on American Airlines since last July though on just a select few aircraft. I finally had the opportunity to experience American's new Gogo 2Ku in-flight wi-fi on my way to Punta Cana. The service proved to be even faster and more reliable than I had expected.
