I don't think they are particularly obvious, but I think there is a tab that you can click on (labelled information or something similar) which explains them. Sorry to be abit vague, but I'm at work and don't have access to the tool here.

Sorry Tony, what threads do these appear in?

Initials can mean anything - depending on context.

My intitial guesses without giving them much thought would be

NW - North West (airlines)
NWB - Nat West Bank[?]

Any of the normal acronyms that are featured in the glossary should be underlined eg VS so that when you drag your mouse pointer over them, the meaning appears.

NA = Non-smoking Aisle
NAB = ditto ditto Bulkhead
NW = Non-Smoking Window
NWB = need I go on? ;)

Thanks, Bazz - I would never have worked that out - don't associate smoking and flying any more;)

Nah, it's not that obvious, suppose they show it as a matter of course because some airlines/routes still allow it [:(]

What airlines still allow smoking[?]

I thought even the east european carriers had stopped smoking now!!

I used to know someone who was a big fan of Thai becasue they continued to allow smoking after most other airlines had banned it. Don't know if this is still their policy.
