American Airline 370.
(photo credit:Gene Blevins/Reuters)
Have you ever walked into a Walmart only to be told over the loudspeakers,
"Don't trust the salespeople"? Been to a movie lately, where one of the ads
preceding the movie beseeched you not to rely on the ushers? Then how would you
react if American Airlines management issued a statement blasting its pilots for
causing hundreds of flight cancellations and delays? The long-running dispute
between AA and its pilots, who saw their labor arrangement cancelled by a US
bankruptcy court last month, has reached a nasty state, with both sides hurling
accusations. AA, which has already sent out layoff warning notices to 11,000
employees, said in the statement that flight disruptions were primarily due to
the significant increase in maintenance write-ups by its own pilots.
Furthermore, it said, AA pilots have been calling in sick 20 more than last
year, leading to even more cancellations.American Airlines is already in
Chapter 11, a precursor to full bankruptcy. US Airways and AA have signed a
non-disclosure agreement, in the fervent hope that AA can be salvaged. The head
of AA's pilot union has taken to asking his own pilots not to call in sick, not
to fill out frivolous maintenance reports, and not to make time-consuming
detours.The impact on the individual flier is a heavy one.Keep
in mind that American Airlines doesn't fly to every country in the world, but
because it wants your dollars and euros, it appoints general sales agents in
countries where it elects not to land its planes.In Israel, while it has
the right to fly into Tel Aviv, AA has elected not to exercise this option and
instead appointed Tal Aviation.Since its founding in 1987, Tal has
emerged as a leading and dynamic airline representative able to deliver
cost-effective solutions for developing new markets. With an experienced and
dedicated team, it offers airlines creative and adaptable strategies to compete
effectively in today's highly competitive airline industry and travel
marketplace.Or so it claims on its site. The reality is somewhat
different.SHLOMI IS 23 years old, did his three years of army service
and, like so many IDF soldiers, worked for a bit upon being discharged, saving
up money for a six-month jaunt to North and South America. Working with his
travel consultant, he planned a trip using American Airlines as his trans-Altantic airline, and purchased a reasonable ticket, scheduling his return from
Los Angeles to London on AA, with El Al bringing him back to Tel
Aviv.Five months into his trip, lazing on the beaches of Cancun, Mexico
and sipping a well-deserved Piña Colada, he got a text message that a close
relative had died in Tel Aviv. Throwing caution to the wind, he decided to
return to Tel Aviv straight from Cancun instead of from LA. Scouring the
Internet, he saw that American Airlines also flew from Cancun, and contacted his
travel consultant to make the change and to pay the difference in
fare.His consultant confirmed the obvious: Instead of flying AA from LA
to London, he would fly from Cancun to London on AA via JFK. In fact, she
guesstimated, with the change fee and extra taxes, it would easily be well
under $300. Shlomi approved the changes with the proviso that the penalty would
not exceed that amount, and Tali, his travel consultant, contacted Tal Aviation
to get his ticket reissued.In your dreams, she was told, we can't
authorize the change. Since Tal's system was incapable of giving an exact fee,
it refused to take responsibility and passed the buck to AA in London. Going up
to a supervisor at Tal Aviation elicited the same response: We are not willing
to risk a debit memo from AA on your behalf. Your client, your problem, was the
clear message.Here's the airline's phone number, Tal said, give them a
ring.Tali had no option but to contact the airline by phone. Waiting 20
minutes simply to speak to a human being, she received one quote, and then
another one 20 minutes later. She was aware that there would be both a penalty
in the air fare and a difference in the taxes.The AA representative
would only quote the tax difference in a single sum, refusing to provide her
with a breakdown of the different taxes being charged. No matter, a firm amount
was quoted: $248 in all. As the call was being concluded, the AA representative
did mention she saw some type of schedule change on the leg from Cancun to JFK,
no doubt prompted by their pilots' actions. When Tali asked what that schedule
change might be, AA's reply was it couldn't divulge that information. The
representative did assure her that the exact quotation of the fees would be sent
to Tal Aviation so the ticket could be properly reissued.It only took
three more hours for Tal Aviation to call back with the details, and it reissued
the ticket. Shlomi received the new e-ticket, never realizing the process that
making his simple change had entailed.He was cautioned, though, that as
he had already paid the reissue fee, he should vigorously fight any attempt to
make him pay one peso more. A wise warning it was, for on checking in at
Cancun's AA counter, he was told he had to pay a change fee. When he showed them
the emails from Tali, they rechecked their system and apologized for the
miscommunication.He made his flights, retrieved his bags and, after
thanking her profusely, mentioned that he was planning on traveling again the
next month and that a cursory search showed him AA had some of the cheaper fares
to the US.Should he fly with them? When an esteemed Wall Street Journal
columnist advises his readers to book away from American Airlines this fall,
those comments resonate loudly in my mind. Columnist Scott McCartney made that
suggestion, saying that the airline's operation "is in shambles" and that the
carrier has become too unreliable.I would simply exhort potential fliers
to think carefully before purchasing tickets on American Airlines this fall.
It's hard to resist their international fares, which are some of the cheapest
around. Inside the US, the low-cost carriers and the legacy carriers offer
clear-cut alternatives. When the on-time statistics show that American is barely
maintaining a 50% record while the airline industry norm is over 90%, I'd pay
attention.When AA's own management is threatening legal action against
the pilots' union, I'd listen.Use your common sense before deciding to
save your dollars and cents.The writer is the CEO of Ziontours

There are hundreds of threads dealing with the subject of what to wear in Paris. About six were started in the last five minutes. I'd encourage you to read them first, and then see if you have any remaining questions.
Report Abuse
Pour vous: a Goyard St. Louis tote, Taryn Rose ballet flats, black linen pants, and Lilly Pulitzer scoop-neckline tops in bright prep colours.
Pour le husband: Prada flat-front pants in either robin-egg blue or red, linen golf shirts, a Gucci murse, and JP Tod driving shoes.
Pour le kids: J Crew or Brooks Brothers resort wear, and Armani aviator sunglasses. Gel their hair.

It doesn't really matter as long as all of you have Gauloises hanging from your lips and the husband sports a murse....

Summing up prior threads (slanted for my own opinion): French adults don't wear shorts, white sneakers or ball-caps in the city.
Beyond that, you'll be fine if you dress for the weather.
Report Abuse
Wear what you would each wear at home in the summer if you were getting dressed for a "dressy casual" occasion.
Footwear, make it comfortable and take two pair per person so you can switch back & forth.
Report Abuse
Make sure you each have 2 good pair of study waterproof walking shoes and a folding umbrella.
Little kids should dress like little kids. Adults should dress so they don;t look like little kids (avoid shorts, university tee shirts, giant white clown sneakers, baseball caps). Assuming you will be mostly casual fine are lightweight pants and polo shirts, for ladies capris, lighweight slacks, lightweight skirts and pretty summer tops. Everyone needs a very lightweight jacket - preferably with hood in case it rains.
There is no need for "dressy" unless you plan on going to a truly elegant restaurant.

Keith Millen slammed "lacklustre" Crystal Palace after losing 3-1 against West Ham at Selhurst Park on Saturday in the Premier League.
Managerless Palace conceded twice in the first half as Mauro Zarate and Stewart Downing put West Ham 2-0 ahead before Marouane Chamakh pulled a goal back early in the second period.
Carlton Cole sealed Palace's fate to end another turbulent week for the London club, who are still recovering from Tony Pulis' departure prior to the start of the season and saw sporting director Iain Moody resign for his part in the Malky Mackay text message scandal.
And Millen was left deflated after a frustrating performance.
"Certainly the first half was disappointing," said Palace's caretaker manager. "We never got going.
"We spoke about being at home and the expectations but we were flat. There was no tempo to our pressing, we allowed West Ham to control the game.
"We had a couple of chances to take the lead before they scored but in general we were lacklustre.
"It's been a tough week for the players. I've tried to play it down before, in training they've been fine but never sure how they respond.
"But I don't want to make excuse that was not good enough in the first half.
"We got a response in the second half and I thought we could get something out of it. But unfortunately we've conceded another goal from a set-piece that's killed the game."
Millen is expected to still be in charge for Palace's midweek League Cup clash with Walsall as the search for a new manager continues.

Revenge is sweet in Salford for 'A Taste of Honey' playwright Shelagh Delaney
Jonathan Brown
Sunday 01 June 2014
Salford is to celebrate the life of one of its "most famous daughters", Shelagh Delaney, amid calls for an official apology over an alleged smear campaign against the late playwright by the city's luminaries.
The teenage Delaney's 1958 kitchen-sink drama A Taste of Honey, which recently enjoyed a successful revival at the National Theatre, caught the spirit of the times. She later became an inspiration for pop star Morrissey. But her subject matter, including casual inter-racial sex and homosexuality led to condemnation in the council chamber, pulpit and in the local press, according to a new book. A plan for her to create a people's theatre was sabotaged because of her suspected communist sympathies, it is claimed.
According to Sweetly Sings Delaney, by John Harding, in 1961 the then leader of the council, Sir Sidney Hamburger, lambasted the "persistent denigration of Salford by all sorts of people".
Alderman Hamburger is quoted as saying the latest notoriety made him "want to vomit".
"I don't understand why there seems to be a general policy of denigration of this city … whether playwrights drawing royalties from plays on subjects which seek to rub our noses in the muck or aspiring playwrights who have learned from others' successes," he added.
Announcing that the first official annual Shelagh Delaney Day will take place on 25 November this year, Salford's elected mayor Ian Stewart described the writer as one of the city's "most famous daughters … who captured and celebrated the spirit of Salford".
This prompted accusations of "hypocrisy" from the local paper: "The Salford Star is demanding that the Mayor and Salford City Council should make a full formal apology before jumping on the Delaney bandwagon."
However Louise Woodward-Styles, who led the campaign to create the day, said the writer's daughter, Charlotte, had been "amused" by calls for an apology.
"Why should a council apologise for the attitudes of a bygone era, a society that not only feared difference but was also unable to recognise that life in Salford wasn't all a bed of roses?" she asked. "Apology? Not in Shelagh's name."

Minocqua Marathoner Home Safe from Boston
Submitted: 04/17/2013
Ben Meyer
Executive Producer
Play Video
- Co-workers of Matt Thomas hugged him more today than they ever have before.
He's a Minocqua runner who finished his fourth Boston Marathon just before two explosions killed three and injured almost two hundred of people.
"It was just completely different," Thomas said.
Thomas finished his fourth Boston Marathon Monday on what he called a perfect day to run.
Watching for two other Lakeland area friends to come to the finish line�
He said it was like loud, close fireworks or a Revolutionary War style cannon.
"People were like, is that normal? I said, 'I've been here for four years, and I've never seen anything like that'. I think it was about 20 seconds later, but , I don't know, time kind of goes funny, then, in that situation, the second explosion went off," Thomas said.
That was when he knew it was no accident, and no celebration.
"People got blown into the course, and the barricades got blown over by the blast. Right away, by seeing what had happened to the people and the barricades coming out into the course, you knew something was not right," said Thomas.
He looked around him for backpacks or trash cans that could be another bomb, and didn't see any.
Because of that, he decided not to move from his spot a couple hundred yards from the explosions.
Instead, he watched the emergency workers rushing to help.
"It was pretty incredible. To see the response - when the second blast went off, the first police cars and the first fire trucks, first two fire trucks and ambulance were there within seconds," Thomas said.
Boylston Street, once packed with thousands of people, was nearly deserted.
That took just minutes.
But it took closer to hours for the entire Northwoods group to reunite - all of them totally safe.
Thomas could take at least one positive from Monday - his marathon time qualifies him for next year's Boston.
So will he go back to run at that same place?
"My view is, I'm going to run Boston because, if you don't run Boston, then you're giving the people who did this exactly what they wanted which is, you're afraid of doing things you normally did," he said.

Every year, a host of elite championships thrill passionate curling fans across Canada and around the world. But, in the eyes of the top competitors, there is one that clearly stands out as the toughest of all.
Alex Gough thought her reign as a Canadian champion might be in jeopardy on Sunday. Instead, Gough narrowly edged out Kim McRae at the 2014 Canadian Luge Championships at Canada Olympic Park to win her seventh-straight national title.
Lanette Prediger didn't take up skeleton racing until the age of 27.
Justin Kripps capped off a golden weekend on Sunday, while Kaillie Humphries proved she can hold her own against the men.
Make it two years in a row for the man they call Grizz.
It's fitting that the memorial service for Rod Love is being held on Nov. 1 — Ralph Klein's birthday. So great was their connection on so many levels — friendship, family, lore, legacy and love — that the timing seems more serendipitous than coincidental.
Once again, Jennifer Jones proved she's as good as gold. Jones made a clutch shot in the eighth end to beat Rachel Homan 6-5 in the championship final of at the $50,000 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic at the Calgary Curling Club on Monday.
For Canada's bobsleigh and skeleton athletes, this weekend is all about business. They will be on the track at Canada Olympic Park for testing and selection camps.
Jennifer Jones had a duty added to her regularly-scheduled busy day on Thursday.
Bob Hamilton is a big believer in the benefits that sports can provide. He loves to watch young people work hard to do well in their chosen disciplines and is a keen promoter of sports excellence.
Increased demand for ice time at Canada Olympic Park will mean youth players in some parts of the city will have to travel farther for games and practices. The Bow River Bruins Hockey Association, the largest in the city, recently sent a letter to parents saying players in all age divisions will have more games and practices elsewhere as a result.
The trail starts with a steep descent into the Bow River Valley before slicing back up the bluff and passing below a dusty sweep of wind-scoured hoodoos. Then, after swerving high along the hillsides with hair-raising 20 metre drops looming on every twist, a muddy ravine must be negotiated at kilometre three. Completing that, the rugged path dips to the river again and a slick section of tippy, algae-smeared stones must be crossed. At this point, given the fact you're halfway through one of the trickiest trails in Calgary (I failed to mention the mudslide, the gnarly roots, the thistles, and the barbed-wire fence), you're already fully convinced that trail running can be one of the dirtiest, diciest — and, yes, most exciting! — workouts in the Wild West.
A proposal to create the world's largest urban farm is ripe for the picking.
Officially, the Calgary Flames 2014-15 National Hockey League campaign begins on Oct. 8 with the first regular season game against the Vancouver Canucks.
RED DEER — The opening three hours and two minutes were lickety-split enough. But those closing 14 seconds? Inter-galactic fast. Scotty couldn't have milked more out of the USS Enterprise while being pursued by a fleet of Klingon warships.
Perched on a quiet bluff on the southwestern tip of Tuscany in Calgary's northwest is the Vistas of Tuscany — an exclusive, intimate alcove of 14 luxury bungalows and two-storey villas — all featuring stunning views.
LETHBRIDGE — Stow the umbrellas. Keep those Macintoshes in the closet. The Rain Man rules.
On the winner's stage of Tuesday's opening day of the Tour of Alberta, Tom Dumoulin was twice forced to undergo a brief costume change. But not that the 23-year-old Dutchman minded.
The man behind Canada's largest urban agriculture farm — a 4.5-hectare pocket of land near Canada Olympic Park that produces truckloads of produce for the food bank — wants to grow the operation into the world's largest urban farm. Paul Hughes said Grow Calgary has made a request to the provincial government for an additional 254 hectares of land on the transportation utility corridor that would be used to grow everything from carrots to cabbage, zucchini and turnips.

Rangers add 4 top prospects to 40-man roster
LINGTON, Texas (AP) -- The Texas Rangers have selected the contracts of four top prospects from their minor league system to protect them from next month's winter meetings draft.
Texas on Thursday night added to its 40-man roster right-hander Luke Jackson from Triple-A Round Rock, and infielder Hanser Alberto, catcher Jorge Alfaro and right-hander Jerad Eickhoff from Double-A Frisco.
To make room on the roster, the Rangers designated outfielder/first baseman Jim Adduci for assignment, traded outfielder Daniel Robertson to the Los Angeles Angels for a player to be named later or cash, and placed right-hander Miles Mikolas and left-hander Aaron Poredo on unconditional release waivers for the purpose of both playing in Asia next year.
Among the prospects added to the 40-man roster, Alberto won a Gold Glove as the top defensive shortstop in the minors last season. Eickhoff led all Double-A pitchers and Texas minor leaguers with 144 strikeouts for Double-A Frisco, while Jackson was 9-5 with 126 strikeouts in 123 1-3 innings combined for Triple-A Round Rock and Frisco.
Earlier Thursday, the Rangers signed catcher Chris Gimenez and right-hander David Martinez to minor league contracts with invitations to major league spring training. Left-hander Efrain Nieves was signed to a minor league deal.
Gimenez was on the Rangers' opening day roster last season after being acquired on a waiver claim from Oakland in late March, then was traded to Cleveland in August. The catcher combined to hit .241 with 11 RBIs in 42 games for the Rangers and Indians last season.
Martinez had a 6.38 ERA in seven relief appearances for the Houston Astros the past two seasons. He went 5-6 with a 5.64 ERA and started in 13 of his 22 appearances for Triple-A Oklahoma City last season.

Is the party over for Sarah Palin and the Tea Party?
The GOP caved in on the debt ceiling. Senate Republicans are going soft on immigration. And Fox has decided to get rid of Sarah Palin. So is this the end of the Tea Party?
David Usborne
David Usborne is US Editor of The Independent.
Monday 28 January 2013
Word at the weekend that Sarah Palin has been let go by Fox News, where she had been peddling her conservative positions for the past three years, barely shocked. Who hadn't seen that coming? Yet it is also highly telling. The Republican Party is rushing to rebrand itself and whose face does it not want on its new packaging? Sarah Palin's.
The former Governor of Alaska reportedly cost the Rupert Murdoch-owned network $1m a year. That worked out last year at about $16 (£10) a word, a lot for someone who was number two on a failed presidential ticket more than four years ago (or a lot for anyone, for that matter). Her appearances, most by way of a satellite link to a studio that Fox had installed in her home in Wasilla, had become less frequent. She drew attention to the fact when she posted a Facebook message during the Republican convention last August whining that Fox wasn't coming to her for commentary.
But Ms Palin's peak probably came not when she was running alongside John McCain (possibly the worst decision of his political life) but in 2010, when the Republican Party was all about the Tea Party surge. Crowned as its figurehead, she wrote blockbuster books and had television shows, all the while keeping herself politically relevant on Fox.
But that angry energy has ebbed. A poll by Rasmussen says 8 per cent of voters describe themselves as Tea Party members, down from 24 per cent in 2010. Only 30 per cent have a positive view of it. "Sarah Palin represented a time and place… and that time is passing very quickly and party leaders are finally understanding that," Joe Scarborough, the MSNBC news anchor and former Republican Congressman, noted yesterday.
They may also have concluded that more than irrelevant, Ms Palin is toxic. The reinvention going on now in the wake of Mitt Romney's defeat is about rediscovering moderation, abandoning radical stances adopted notably by the Tea Party. It is why party leaders have put off a fight with President Barack Obama on the debt ceiling until the early summer. It's also why four Republican US Senators, led by Mr McCain, appeared alongside four Democrat colleagues yesterday to lay out a plan for comprehensive immigration reform that will include offering a path to green-card status for the 11 million illegal aliens in the country.
Just a few months ago, such a development would have been anathema to nearly everyone in the party. Mr Obama, who will lay out his own version of reform in Las Vegas this morning, now has a chance in his second term to sign into law a deal on remaking the country's byzantine immigration rules that has eluded his predecessors.
The Republicans are doing it because of the drubbing suffered by Mr Romney among Hispanic voters last year. No one blinked a year ago when the primary candidates vied with one another for the most extreme stance on immigration, whether it was building more walls on the borders or making the lives of those already in the country illegally so miserable that they would, as Mr Romney put it, "self-deport". Now, those statements make their eyes water. This month, Ms Palin was excoriated by Colin Powell, the former general and Secretary of State, for accusing Mr Obama last year of "shuckin' and jivin'" on what happened at the US consulate in Benghazi. It was a racist slur from the slavery age, he said. In the same interview he spoke of a "dark vein of intolerance in some parts of the party", adding: "What I mean by that is they still sort of look down on minorities."
Ms Palin may have consigned herself to eventual oblivion in early 2011, when some sought to implicate her in the attempted assassination of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in her Tucson constituency. A Palin website in 2010 had sought to highlight Ms Giffords's district as winnable with a graphic featuring cross-hairs. The former Governor posted a video on Facebook accusing the liberal media of committing "blood libel" against her. The phrase has well-known anti-Semitic connotations. She was flayed for it. Earlier this month, the Governor of Louisiana, Bobby Jindal, said the Republicans had to "stop being the stupid party" if it is to win again. He was referring most obviously to the most embarrassing incident of 2012 when Todd Akin, a Senate candidate in Missouri, said women who were victims of "legitimate rape" had some biological means to stop becoming pregnant. Would he put Ms Palin, utterer of "blood libel" and "you betcha", in the same stupid box?
Ms Palin at the weekend said leaving Fox was an opportunity for her. "We can't just preach to the choir; the message of liberty and true hope must be understood by a larger audience," she said. Everyone would wish her luck with that, except perhaps for those now engaged in making the Republican Party more broadly palatable again.
Quest for success: Tea Party members
Ron Paul
Once dubbed the Tea Party's "intellectual godfather", the 77-year-old staunch libertarian retired from politics after failing to secure the Republican presidential nomination last year. His son Rand, the junior Kentucky Senator, remains a member.
Michele Bachmann
The Minnesota Congresswoman was a founder of the Tea Party Congressional Caucus. She was moved to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence this month – an important role for her, and that of the Tea Party.
Jim DeMint
The former South Carolina Senator resigned last month and said he would lead the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank, adding: "The election taught conservatives we can no longer entrust political parties to carry our message."
Dick Armey
Once seen as the de facto national Tea Party leader, the 72-year-old has recently helped to reinforce Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal's assertion that the Republican Party is now seen as the "stupid party", through a series of gaffes.

"Beautiful room w/ great service but a few quirks"
We stayed at the Aitana while my husband attended a conference at the nearby NH Eurobuilding. The hotel is in a business/residential area rather than tourist spot, and the local stores and restaurants are mostly patronized by locals. (We enjoyed La Vaca Argentina and La Nonna.) For tourists, the number 27 bus will take you straight to the museums. We […] stayed in room 508, facing the street, and did not experience any of the noise problems some reviewers have noted. The room was lovely, with great temperature control and an extremely effective blackout shade. Wi-fi is free in the lobby but very slow there. It's better in the room but costly. The staff is very helpful. There are two quirks worth mentioning. The first is that there are no drawers or shelves for folded clothes. We had to ask for extra hangers and still wound up living out of our suitcases for underwear and such. The second is that the bathroom (shower and toilet) door is translucent glass, which takes a little getting used to for those accustomed to more privacy. The door also jumped its track at one point and we had to get it fixed, for fear of becoming trapped in the bathroom. This was handled promptly while we were out. All in all, a very nice hotel.

"Quite Hotel Close to Public Transportation"
We were visiting friends in Madrid. They recommended this hotel and we stayed here 4 nights. This is a small quiet hotel well located for travel to other parts of Madrid by bus or subway. There are a number of decent restaurants, at all price ranges, within easy walking distance, along with a nearby 24 hour store if you need it. Rooms in this hotel […] were quiet and very functional, with good beds. The Chamartin district of Madrid is a lovely residential area with a nice atmosphere. Overall great visit.

"Excellent experience, so much fun"
The hotel was absolutely amazing. We really felt comfortable. The staff was wonderful, and it was so much fun being near the Santiago Bernabéu. Metro access is great to get downtown, and no need to fight the crowds or noise. I would highly, highly recommend it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Large room, nice extra bed for our daughter. Hotel is a bit outside of city center, easily reachable by subway though.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice rooms"

"Really nice hotel with nice employees"
It was a really nice experience: the hotel is really nice, close to the Barnabeu with a really nice people working in it. I was surprised when the cleaning personal asked us at what time was better for us and the limit was 8pm..Everything was really good and clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great for Real Madrid Fans"
Great choiceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel for business travelers"
This hotel is easily accessible and is about 20 minutes from the airport. The rooms are neat, clean and very modern. Wifi was a little slow at times but overall consistent. The bed was comfortable and my room had a wonderful view of the city. The breakfast was very nice. The rooms have wood (wood type) flooring with no rugs, so bring socks or comfortable […] shoes. Buses were easily accessible and the hotel is also very near the Madrid Real stadium. The staff was nice and helpful. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great Location. Great Hotel"
Great Hotel overall. about 2 blocks away from Real Madrid Stadium, where you can tour stadium, catch a game if in season, catch the metro (or line 27 bus which goes up and down the main corridor for easy access to all attractions. You can also catch the Double Deck Madrid Bus (extremely recommended, get the 2 day pass and use it as method of transportation […] thru out the city) across from Read Madrid Stadium (Estadio Santiago Bernabeu). Great resturants around area also. Free unlimited wifi in hotel lobby but pay-per-use in rooms. 1 desktop PC available in lobby. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel"
The room was large and very comfortable. Convenient to the metro. Personnel were very helpfull. I recommend the hotel..Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great easy modern & clean hotel"
We stayed in the Aitana for two nights and it was absolutely perfect. The location isn't particularly "pretty" as it is just off a main road and a bit outside the Centre of Madrid but our room (708)was facing the road (and the Ministry of Defence) on the 7th floor and couldn't hear much other than the odd police/ambulance siren. It was also less than […] 5 minutes walk to two Metro stations (and the Bernabeau Stadium) and then about 30 mins to the City Centre or 20mins to the Airport. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Lovely hotel close to the Bernabau"
Could not fault the hotel or it's staff. It was spotlessly clean and room was lovely. Great variety of foods served for breakfast and it's location ideal for the Bernabau. Bus stop a cross the road, bus only1.5 euros into the centre, lovely place to stay.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Hotel close to San Bernabeu stadium & metro"
Visited Madrid to attend a wedding. The buses to /from the wedding were at the stadium so the hotel was ideally located. The room was good &, although we were facing the busy main road , the double glazing was very effective. All of the staff were very friendly & helpful., I must particularly commend Manolo on reception & the young man in the breakfast […] restaurant. The breakfast was very expensive at 22eurps each but you could not fault the quality or the extent of what was available. A very pleasant experience all round. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"1 Night in Madrid"
as we were going to watch Real Madrid, the hote3l was perfect, only 1-2 mins walk from the stadium. Nevertheless, the staff were fantastic for/to us, and cannot fault any of their helpfulness and friendliness, as well as their full understanding of English - impeccable, thanks once again!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good location - charge for wifi in room"
Hotel is great location for Real Madrid Stadium and nearby business. Its 15 minutes by bus to centre (€1.50 per trip). Hotel was clean and the reception team were friendly and helpful. No free wifi in room - when I asked at reception told it was not included and cost was €12 for 24 hours - just ridiculous. The lobby bar has not atmosphere, but reasonably […] priced drinks and light snacks. There are no tea/coffee or complimentary water in room. Overall was a pleasant stay. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for business trips"
Hotel is perfect for business travellers. Not so central so tourists may wish to look closer to town. The wifi is listed as complimentary but this is only true for reception. You have to pay in your room. This should be clarified on the hotel description of hotels.comGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Comfortable Business Hotel"
Very nice rooms, convenient location and great service - only thing lacking was the hotel lobby bar - a bit bright and formalGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Marriott - Madrid, Spain"
We were here on Aug.29, 2012 for the Real and Barcelona game. The hotel is 2-3 minutes walking distance to the stadium. Our room was very clean and we had no issues at all. The hotel staff was very accommodating and helpful. I would definitely recommend this hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
Good, but they charge a lot to get WiFi in your room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very well maintained and reasonably priced"
Breakfast was excellent. Staff very helpful, room and the hotel itself in very good condition, clean, well appointed. A pleasant surprise, having endured many dreadful hotels elsewhere around the world. Completely lived up to the hotel's description. Only downside is the distance from the city centre, but a brisk walk is good for you, the metro is close, […] and the taxi back is only about 10€. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pleasantly surprised"
Was expected a good hotel stay and I got more than expected. The staff were helpful, friendly and the room was clean, spacious and well situated with plenty of natural light from floor to ceiling windows. However, it was the extras that really made the difference, breakfast could be taken in restaurant or room at no extra cost (and it ran until midday). […] The complimentary mini bar was a very nice touch. It would be good to have free wifi in room, this is pretty standard these days. All in all a very pleasant stay.

"2 night stay, early April"
Everything about hotel was fine, v good breakfasts as part of deal. Great location for metro transfers to airport (30mins) and city centre (10 mins). Only issue was aircon was not switched on and with recent hot weather rooms were hot. had to open window to room, which meant traffic noise from below. Once aircon is switched on then all will be ok. […] With windows shut the traffic noise was not noticeable. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
About 45 min from the airport (and only paid 2.50 Euros) by metro. Got the deluxe double package that included breakfast for 100 Euros. Also found out that mini bar contents were complimentary (only one beer, the rest water and pop) but that was fine by us. Fitness room a little limited with a step machine, a bike and a treadmill but managed to work […] up a sweat. Would definitely go back! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

ELKHART — Plymouth power hitter Damon Howe took it personally when the Pilgrims' rally fell short at Elkhart Memorial Wednesday.
When Plymouth made the pilgrimage back to Elkhart on Friday, this time for a Northern Lakes Conference showdown with Concord, Howe did something about it.
Howe drove in five of Plymouth's six runs as the Pilgrims broke the game open with a big third inning to claim a 10-2 NLC victory on the road at Concord and stay in the hunt for an NLC championship.
PLYMOUTH — With all the success Plymouth football has enjoyed over the past three-year cycle, colleges around the country are taking notice.
The Rockies have graduated numerous college recruits in the past several seasons, and a trio of Plymouth players is continuing that tradition in 2011.
PHS seniors Damon Howe, Brock Smith and Houston Hodges will all continue their football careers at the collegiate level.
PLYMOUTH — Chuck Muller, Director of Member Services of "Holey Moley" will address the membership and guests at a dinner meeting Tuesday, May 10, at the Plymouth Country Club.
