NBC had Stephanie Gosk take a crack at flightless travel. Her task was to travel from London to Madrid overland. A train from Saint Pancras…the Channel Tunnel…on to the Gare de Lyon…no connection in Marseille…filing her report from the dateline "nowhere near home." ABC's Miguel Marquez (at the tail of the Alfonsi videostream) brought us a trio of anecdotes from Paris: a married couple from Omaha obliged to extend their tenth-anniversary vacation; an English family wending their way home from Istanbul by train via Bucharest, Budapest, Zurich, Paris and Calais--total travel time 84 hours; an Australian couple traveling to London to get married who had to tie the knot in Dubai and celebrate via Skype.
On CBS, Richard Roth looked at grounded air freight instead: cut stem roses wilting in Kenya and courier companies "absolutely, positively having problems."
