Q: I recently flew from Dallas to Paris on American Airlines. I was traveling with my mother, who uses a wheelchair. American Airlines usually allows me to sit with her.

A representative helped me get two seats next to each other. When I returned to the States, I found an $85 charge for the assigned seat. I didn’t request, or authorize, this charge. American Airlines won’t refund the fee... Читать дальше...

ROME — In her fourth-floor apartment in central Rome, Emanuela Tripi awoke at dawn to the terrifying sounds of a home invasion.

Growing up in Sicily, Tripi always had a romantic vision of seagulls, but now she was face to face with a predator that has aggressively colonized a city a good 20 miles from the sea. She threw a slipper. It ignored her. She lifted a second slipper. Читать дальше...
