<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">The price per barrel of gas hit $136 today as gas prices have soared other the past few months. When thinking about the price of gas, and how much an airplane uses to fly, the conclusion seems to be that airlines prices are going to sky rocket.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Speaking of rockets, what will happen to space travel? Entrepreneurs are finding business in space and as you have seen, Virgin Galactic will be asking for 20 million dollars, but since gas prices have gone up, will prices soar as well? Does that mean that space travel will be canceled or set to an extremely high price?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Once again Virgin appears. In late February Branson was able to have one of his 747’s fly from Heathrow to Holland running with one engine on biofuel. This is the future and if we do not act fast and do something, flight travel may end and the world’s form of transportation could come to an end.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">My blog being called Airlines, Airplanes, and Airports, should have some information about airports. So with the help of Patrick Smith from ask the pilot lets lay down some background information about the biggest and best airports around the world.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">If you are a traveler looking to avoid the worst lines and most packed airports, you might want to avoid Atlanta. The busiest airport in the world, trafficking about a bit more than 76 million people a year. This number may jump is Delta buys Northwest and makes Atlanta the busiest hub in the world. Surprisingly enough next up O’Hare with 66.5 million people going through it every year. Then we get international and move into Heathrow and Haneda. Finally at number 5 LAX rules the gate to the Asian empire. Then with </span><a href="http://www.worldairportawards.com/"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">www.worldairportawards.com</span></a><span style="font-family: Times New Roman"> we find out that Hong Kong int. is most comforting. Runner ups are Singapore’s Changi and Seoul int. The final two to make the top five are Munich’s and Kuala Lumpur’s trailing behind.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Moving on to a, in my opinion, better trusted network, Forbes. They also agree that Hong Kong is numero uno, and Changi’s following, then Incheon, Munich, and the only change in the lineup, Osaka killing off Dubai int., Kuala Lumpur, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and barely making it, Sidney.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Next time you travel try to make it fuel efficient and make it coincide with a non-busy airport that is a great place to relax when your American Airlines flight has been delyed…again.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Video of planes landing at Hong Kong, and one at the old Hong Kong airport.</span></p>
