By Shay Zeller on Wednesday, April 26, 2006.

Our guests are David Field, the Americas Editor for Airline Business Magazine, and Kevin Dillon, the director of the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport.

And we'll hear producer Liz Bulkley's true story about her flight from Boston to Washington, DC where she was the only passenger.
