Vanguard offer: US Airways has expanded its policy to accommodate ticket holders of Vanguard Airlines. Vanguard has filed for protection under the Chapter 11 bankruptcy code. US Airways will honour tickets issued to Vanguard customers who change their travel plans by September 27, accepting Vanguard tickets for travel between the same cities and on the same date. A Vanguard customer has to present proof of a reservation through an electronic ticket receipt, paper ticket or itinerary card at a US Airways ticket counter or ticket office. Seats may not be available for all dates or from all cities, but US Airways said it would try to work with the customer within reason. US Airways will not charge additional fare amounts or handling fees for customers it can accommodate, although certain security and airport fees could be applied. US Airways appears to be the first carrier that will honour Vanguard tickets and allow Vanguard ticket holders to make reservations on its flight schedule.

Remembering September 11: Passengers on American Airlines, which lost two planes in last year's September 11 terrorist attacks on the United States, will hear reflective announcements from pilots when they fly on the one-year anniversary. In the days leading up to the anniversary, employees at American Airlines and United Airlines, which also lost two planes in the attacks, will wear a special ribbon to remember those who died. American Airlines employees will pause for silence on September 11 and pilots will make announcements to people flying on that day asking them to reflect on the anniversary and remember those lost.
