The Train Torture Test Takes On Eurostar
November 3rd, 2009 at 11:44 PMYou should note that it’s easy enough to get a power outlet on Eurostar.
Just choose your seats yourself. Seats in carriage 5 have power outlets, which alternate in rows between UK and European outlets.
It’s also noteworthy that Eurostar is allegedly working on whole-journey wi-fi (as they have on SJ Swedish trains and Italian “Alta Velocita” trains).
HLO Day 27: The Bag Breaks And 3G Dies
May 27th, 2009 at 7:16 PMMaybe I’m the only one, but I personally can’t stand people who use carry-on luggage to drag around stuff they don’t need on the plane.
If you lug around your big wheelie bag and put it in the overhead locker, then you take away space from other people who want to put a simple laptop bag or something up there in which they keep the stuff they want to use on the plane.
Having just spent two weeks in the US (where they charge for checked luggage even on full-service airlines), I was immensely frustrated when I took flights typically taken by businesspeople, because there would *never* be any space in the overhead locker for my bag, which included stuff which I actually needed to use.
Honestly, just check the bag. It’s way more convenient, it’s only a dollar or two extra, and it frees up the space in the overhead lockers for people who actually need it.
