Don’t really think so. Protestors are mad and violent, if one gives up another one starts protesting. I have nothing against people protesting, it’s their right and I fully respect that, but this is just unjustified violence and massacre. But I, as well as you I asume, keep hope for this to end. Cheers man, I love Máncora, really nice place to vacation. Keep it up.

It's very very bad in here. The protests were supposedly going to be pacific but they are the opposite. People dying, people without work, policeman dying, streets are unsafe. In my circle of contacts I see full support for the fight against the protestors, not because they don't have the right to protest, because obviously they do, but because of the extreme violence of the protests. They are taking airports, police stations, civil homes, people's workplaces. I've heard a lot of people talking about "police abuse" because policeman have shot several protestants. It sounds awful at first until you see how the protestors are acting towards the police and enviroment. I mean, if some protestor randomly throws you a brick and is going with handmade weapons directly towards you what are you going to do? The protestors have caused incredible damage to the city, to the people and to the officers. They are free to protest, I fully agree with their rights, everyone has the right, but nobody has the right to do the harm they are doing in the name of "protesting"

Links so you can see how are this "protests"

Ms. Gilbertson has covered airlines and travel in depth for many years while at the Arizona Republic and later sister publication, USA Today. She has a real affinity for covering what was the Williams Gateway airport, now Phoenix-Mesa airport and the growth throughout the years by Allegiant and other airlines at that airport. Also, she has been able to land big interviews with major airline executives. It also helped that America West and later USAir (I never liked the name US Airways) were based in Tempe - right in her backyard.

Even though she's fairly new to the WSJ, her rolodex/iPhone is full of aviation and travel-related contacts who sit in the executive offices and the boardrooms!

Overall, she's been a fair journalist. Myself, as a pro-business pro-capitalist subscriber of the WSJ. I believe her style of reporting will fit nicely within the WSJ - providing the required analysis of the airlines - and all the "baggage" that goes along with the airlines (profitability, labor negotiations, union belly-aching, routes, alliances. frequent flyer/elite programs, in-flight service, airports served, cargo/freight, corporate managed travel, third-party bookings, travel agents etc.), along with some general consumer travel tips worthy of WSJ readers. (think Ritz-Carlton and luxury vacations, not Motel 6 and other lame bargain-basement hotels - although, those high-end hoteliers who are charging more and degraded their service should be held accountable - along with their owners and REITs!)

Scott McCartney may be missed by some - but this LOOSE_PUSSEE is glad he retired. He was becoming such a cry baby when things went wrong at the airlines. In many ways, not very pro-business or pro-airline in his columns - often quick to complain about something wrong. I think he was the porch liberal at the WSJ.

Would I would like from Ms. Gilbertson is information about airlines that WSJ is known for - (exclusives, scoops, etc.) that I don't have to find out by reading Gary Leff's View from the Wing blog or Twitter's John NYC tweets and all of his American Airlines leaks.

Is it too much to ask as paid subscriber to have real reporting NOT FOUND ELSEWHERE?

In Ukrainian language word “million” has criminal slang version “lyam” which further moved to “lemon”. Not really obvious similarity, but it is what it is. So, when people saying “1 million” they sometimes say “1 lemon”. 🙃

One way is to donate to charities and NGOs that are working on the ground in Ukraine. Go to https://www.koloua.com/en or https://u24.gov.ua/.
These organizations are providing much needed aid to those affected by the war, such as food, shelter, and medical care. Another way is to volunteer with local organizations that provide assistance to those in Ukraine. You can also support Ukrainian businesses and organizations by purchasing their products and services, or investing in them. Finally, you can spread awareness of the situation in Ukraine by educating others on the issue and engaging in advocacy campaigns to raise awareness and encourage action.
However, no matter how you choose to help, your efforts will be greatly appreciated and will contribute significantly towards the rebuilding of Ukraine.

>What’s your opinion on encore or other event production providers?

My opinion on encore or other event production providers is that they are a great resource for event planners, allowing them to outsource the more technical aspects of their event such as lighting, sound, and staging. This can be a great way to save time and money by taking advantage of the expertise these providers have to offer. However, it's important to do your research when selecting an event production provider to ensure they have the right experience and knowledge that fit your needs. Ultimately, using an experienced provider can be a great way to elevate your event and make sure it runs smoothly.

Hey. Hope all is best. Ukrainian here living in NYC; how can I best support the rebuilding efforts? Expectations are for there to be a Marshal Plan of sort for Ukraine after the war, but what do you think would be the best avenue for Ukrainians abroad to assist?

Let’s go ZCY!!
