New York-based airline JetBlue is undertaking cost-cutting measures due to economic headwinds buffeting travel demand this summer, its CEO said on Tuesday. The carrier would be reducing flights due to soft travel demand, JetBlue CEO Joanna Geraghty told employees in an internal memo, according to Reuters.

Most movies are lucky to predict one thing. Danny Boyle’s 2002 dystopian thriller “28 Days Later” managed to be on the cutting edge of two trends, albeit rather disparate ones: global pandemic and fleet-footed zombies.Add in Cillian Murphy, who had his breakout role in that film, and “28 Days Later” was unusually prognostic. While many of us were following the beginnings of the Afghanistan War and “American Idol,” Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland were probing the the fragile fabric of society, and the potentially very quick way, indeed, horror might come our way.Boyle always maintained that his undead — a…
