  • Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian Discussed the Airline Industry, Delta’S Recent Successes, and His Vision for the Company
    Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian discussed the airline industry, Delta’s recent successes, and his vision for the company. Ed Bastian, CEO, Delta Air Lines Tuesday, September 17, 2019 1 DAVID RUBENSTEIN: People say that running an airline is not an easy thing to do. You have weather to deal with, energy prices to deal with, lots of employees and so forth. But you grew up in a family of nine children. So, what is easier, growing up in a family of nine children – [laughter] – or running an airline? ED BASTIAN: Running an airline, certainly. [Laughter.] Our family was great. I’m the oldest of nine, and I was sharing with David earlier that when I was five years old my mom – we already had six kids in the house. And so, nine kids sharing three bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths. My dad was a dentist. He had his practice inside our house and my mom worked for him. And so, it was a – MR. RUBENSTEIN: Wasn’t that busy a practice at times, I guess, or? [Laughter.] MR. BASTIAN: He must have had some gaps in his schedule there, yeah. MR. RUBENSTEIN: Right, OK. MR. BASTIAN: But the interesting thing about it was that growing up I didn’t board an airplane till I was 25 years old. MR. RUBENSTEIN: Really? MR. BASTIAN: We couldn’t afford it, you know. Too many of us and it just wasn’t who we were. And I always recall one of my most stark visuals of my childhood is we went on one family trip a year.

  • Traffic Information on the World Wide
    Fact Sheet:Traffic Information on the www Page 1 of 3 Traffic Information on the www Pre-Trip Travel Information systems are intended to allow travelers to access a range of multimodal transportation information at home, work, and other major sites where trips originate. These systems may include information on transit routes, schedules, transfers, and fares; intermodal connections to rail or other transportation systems; access to ridematching services; updates of traffic and highway conditions; real-time information on incidents, accidents, road construction, alternate routes, traffic regulations and tolls; measured and predicted congestion and traffic speeds along specific routes; parking conditions and fees; availability of park-and-ride facilities; tolls; special event information; and weather information. As envisioned in the National ITS Program Plan, Pre-Trip Travel Information systems will become a part of wider information services that appeal to a range of consumer needs in addition to transportation. As services such as interactive television and the National Information Infrastructure (specifically, the Internet) evolve, Pre-Trip Travel Information systems will complement other home information networks such as home shopping, banking or educational services. This Fact Sheet lists Traffic Information Services available on the World Wide Web (WWW). Because the way the WEB is structured, users can move around various Web sites using pre-established links, the information described here may be accessed from a large number of web pages. Whenever possible, originating addresses are noted here. 1 .O Southern California Real-time Traffic Reports The Southern California Area Traffic Report is an experimental public service and joint effort between Maxwell Laboratories and the California State Department of Transportation to provide real-time freeway traffic information to homeward bound commuters in their offices via the Internet.
