HAPPY THANKSGIVING


We are thankful for your obedience to the Lord in sharing the saving Gospel of Christ to all the nations of the world. May God continue to bless you, your family, and the ministry you represent richly and without limit. For the past 25 years we have been blessed by missionaries allowing us to partner with them in their coordination of travel. Please accept our pledge to always work as unto the Lord to remain worthy of your confidence and trust.


FUEL INCREASE – SEAT DECREASE


As this message is written, crude prices are almost $95.00 a barrel. United Airlines has informed the public that they may have to cut seat/space capacity in 2008 to “offset the pressures on profits from raising oil prices”. Other airlines are expected to follow suit. On November 14th there was another fuel surcharge. 2008 fares will be more expensive because of oil prices and fewer seats to sell. Planes will fill quicker – and prices will climb. To be a good steward of the Lord’s funds you must place your seats on a courtesy hold to obtain the best fares. However, if you wait into 2008 you will pay substantially more! Remember, you are able to lock in the fare without any financial obligation. We will work closely with you on this. Please be pro-active by emailing: reservations@cherokeetravel.net.


TRAVEL TIPS


www.flightaware.com is the most sophisticated, useful, and fun aviation site on the Internet. It tracks in “real time” every airplane on an instrument flight plan over all of North America and much of the Atlantic and Pacific. Simply key in the airline name and flight number. A map will show
you exactly where the flight is enroute to its destination. With another click you receive all the relevant information for the arrival airport such as wind and weather, ceiling and visibility. It’s a wonderful site for use of family members to track a loved-one’s journey.


NEW PROCEEDURES AT JAPANESE AIRPORTS


Foreign nationals are required to undergo additional screening by scanning their index fingers and also having immigration agents taking a facial photograph. Travelers are advised to allow extra time for this new immigration procedure. For more information: Japanese Airport Video
