Marriott’s Worst Resort May Finally Close — A $50 Million Subsidized Redevelopment in the U.S. Virgin Islands Is Taking Shape Marriott’s long-running embarrassment in St. Croix — the Carambola Beach Resort, stripped of its Renaissance flag and notorious for filthy conditions — may finally be heading for a shutdown. A government-backed, roughly $50 million redevelopment plan is moving through the U.S. Virgin Islands legislature, even as the hotel remains bookable and the deal still isn’t fully final.

No Matter How Much You Pay Southwest Airlines, You Can’t Move to an Empty Seat [Roundup] Southwest is now charging for seats, but passengers report that even after paying for premium emergency-row seating they’re still not allowed to slide into an empty seat when the cabin has open rows. Plus, the JFK AirTrain price goes up again, American flyers gripe about ads before onboard Wi-Fi, and there’s a 20,000-mile AT&T switching promo.

Iran Hits Dubai Airport Again — Flights Suspended, Then Resumed as Tehran Signals De-Escalation Dubai International briefly suspended flights again after another Iran-linked incident near the airport, prompting diversions to Al Maktoum before Emirates resumed operations shortly afterward. In a notable shift, Tehran is now publicly signaling de-escalation, apologizing to neighboring states and saying these cross-border strikes will stop unless Iran itself is attacked—after repeated hits on civilian infrastructure started raising the risk of a wider regional coalition against it.

American Airlines Long Haul Plans for Next Winter Are Out — The New Airbus A321XLR Lets Them Extend Europe Flying in the Slow Season American’s long-haul schedule plans for next winter show exactly what the new Airbus A321XLR is for: keeping marginal transatlantic routes viable when winter demand collapses by right-sizing capacity and leaning premium-heavy. The result is fewer widebody winter losses and more “extended season” Europe flying out of hubs like Philadelphia and JFK, as American uses the smaller jet to stretch routes that couldn’t support a 787 year-round.

United Flight Attendants Postpone Protests — Deal Is Close That Makes Them ‘Best Paid in the Industry’ After 5.5 Years Without a Raise United flight attendants haven’t had a raise in 5.5 years, and inflation has quietly taken a big bite out of what their pay is worth—so the tone shift this week is notable. The union says a final agreement is now close enough that it’s postponing a planned protest day, while United is telling crews the deal will deliver industry-leading pay, signing bonuses, and progress on “sit pay” and other long-running priorities.
