And in other news,

Airline stocks tumbled today as the effect of banning Laptops and Tablets in the cabin starts to be felt.

Business people are just not travelling as much as they did last year. Airlines rely on the Business Class passenger to make the icing on the cake in the business.

Even long haul tourist flights are seeing a downturn.

As a result some airlines are not taking up options on new aircraft, reducing frequency on routes and planning on laying off staff. Some support companies are already reducing the size of their workforce[1]

All because of a possibility????
