!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! reports that newly-signed Yankees pitcher Masahiro Tanaka paid approximately $200,000 to hire a Boeing 787 to fly him and his six presumably best friends from Tokyo to New York City. The 787, operated by Japan Airlines, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! The charter was chosen to avoid any weather delays affecting New York City. However, a similar flight on a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , would cost $181,300 (14 hour flight) before food. So in all seriousness, the Dreamliner is quite good value, especially when you consider it flew back to Tokyo with an empty cabin.

NY Yankees - overpaying for players since the dawn of time.
I guess I'd be extravagant with my money too if I knew the Yankees paid me more than any other team would.

Hmm I bet that G550 would've had couches and such, rather than row after pesky row of seating...

I'm glad JAL brought back their old-school logo, it's always been one of the best in the industry.

I live really close to the San Diego airport and always time my weekend pooch walks at around noon so I can go to the end of the runway and watch the JAL 787 take off. Such a beautiful bird to watch. Dat wing flex ... so graceful.
