Travel RoundUp

1 – A group of passengers is suing Carnival Cruise Lines for damages after an engine fire left their ship adrift for days. They are asking the company to pay $5,000 a month for the rest of their lives for medical bills and mental anguish. I think this is a bit much!

2 – A US Airways plane had to abort its takeoff after its nose gear collapsed while leaving Philadelphia International Airport, sending the plane skidding off the runway. Click link to see video!

3 – See what flight attendants really think.

4 – A Delta flight lost part of its wing during a flight from Orlando to Atlanta! Scary!

5 – I thought these pictures of North Korea from space were really cool.
