Airlines Overlook an Obvious Cost Cutting Solution: Automating Employee Travel Tickets While Oil Prices Break Through $135/ Barrel Threshold

While airlines "say" they are 100% compliant with the IATA's 100% e-ticketing mandate that went into effect just weeks ago, they're not, according to Tristan Schukraft, Managing Director, ID90 Technologies (ID90T). "This month's deadline saw the majority of airlines overlooking the automation of their employees' interline tickets, because those tickets fall into the 'non-revenue' category," he says.

While employee tickets are considered "non-revenue" for the airline (they don't make them money) - they nonetheless cost airlines a considerable amount of money. "It's easy to see how the non-revenue side of the business would be last to be considered, but airlines are losing out on new revenue through cost savings at a time when fuel could surpass $200/barrel in the next year, leaving the airlines in even more dire straits," says Schukraft....

One of the most popular fund share choices of the past several years has come under question. In fact, the nations fourth largest provider of mutual funds recently announced they will no longer offer this option. Read on to learn how all this may affect you.

Spring Break Soccer Training and Spanish Language Camp in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Students will have new opportunities for studying abroad this spring at a soccer training and Spanish language camp in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The camp owners, Joseph Bilotta and Corey Zimmerman, hope to broaden students' world view while providing internationally competitive soccer training and full-immersion language and cultural lessons.

"I wanted to get involved with EduKick because I know that team travel abroad has a tremendous positive influence on young people," said Zimmerman. "It helps them realize their full potential. They see themselves as part of something bigger, they appreciate things more and begin to expect more of themselves."

During the customized one week spring break soccer camps students will receive daily language and cultural tutoring as well as individual and team based soccer training. Soccer camp tuition includes home stay or lodging at a three star hotel in Puerto Vallarta, three meals each day and transportation. In addition to daily lessons students will participate in soccer matches with Mexican youth teams and enjoy supervised sight-seeing excursions.

Soccer training offered at the camp focuses on:

Strength and Conditioning

Technical Precision

Tactical Development

Sport Psychology Coaching

The soccer training and Spanish language camp designed by EduKick strives to provide students with a full-immersion learning experience. The camp's staff of licensed, bilingual instructors believes that their students learn Spanish more quickly and fluently because they are surrounded by Hispanic culture. Thus, kids attending the spring break soccer camp have the chance to improve their foreign language skills exponentially during their brief stay. This will please many parents, as bilingual Americans are in high demand, especially those fluent in Spanish.

The spring break soccer camp will be coached by professionals who are experts in the international soccer arena. Participating youth will train daily under the direction of Armando Cosilion's CODEFUT Soccer School (based in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico). Mr. Cosilion is an experienced, licensed Mexican soccer coach and owner of "CODEFUT Soccer School.... (Continue reading)
