Once you're strapped into the metal tube known as an airplane, your entertainment options are, well, incredibly limited. You could attempt to raw dog the whole flight and stare into the abyss, chat up your neighbor (only if they're willing to indulge you, of course), or pretend to be productive by catching up on some backlog projects — bonus points if you're in one of those productivity-boosting seats to get work done. Or, you could watch "Crazy Rich Asians" for the umpteenth time, a tried-and-true classic for the skies (seriously, ask anyone). But on a particularly lengthy flight, the best option is to snooze. You're at 30,000 feet, with no escape in sight — might as well get comfy and drift off.

Subscription models are more typically associated with watching films on Netflix or streaming music on Spotify, but now one airline has brought the model to flying.

A video of a passenger boasting the "coolest" connection with the pilot operating her flight has gone viral on TikTok. The video was shared by TikTok user @mariev.tcl and has amassed 3.9 million views since it was posted on October 24. The footage shows a woman enjoying a meal on a plane as a note across the clip reads "My biggest flex: no one knows who's flying this Boeing, but I do cause..."

Boeing’s run of losses, production delays and financial struggles has taken another turn for the worse over the last week as the iconic American manufacturer announced it would lay off 10% of its workforce and rescinded an offer to its largest union that is on a strike that is costing the company tens of millions each day it continues.

If you're reading this, you've probably been on your fair share of flights. And while you may understand the science behind how planes fly, there's still something magical about the idea of soaring through the air at over 400 miles an hour. One more thing that seems to work like magic? Airplane toilets.

A Turkish Airlines pilot died in flight Wednesday after suffering a heart attack, which forced the plane to make an emergency landing in New York, the airline said. The plane, which left Seattle on the west coast of the United States on Tuesday night, was headed to the Turkish city of Istanbul, Turkish Airlines spokesman Yahya Ustun told X.

Late last year, Boeing employee Craig Garriott says a 4-ton satellite inside an El Segundo plant fell after engineers failed to properly secure a clamp. No one was injured by the collapse of the $1 billion-plus satellite that happened over a weekend, but it could have been fatal if workers were present, Garriott claims.

Boeing was dealt yet another blow when thousands of its workers walked off the job on Friday after union members rejected a contract offer from the company, adding more uncertainty to its uneven production of airplanes amid safety concerns and crises that have enveloped the manufacturer in recent years.
