Do you mind if I inquire what your career is? I would love a technology-related job that allows me to travel like that.

Just travel. Focusing on travel-related jobs is not a great goal. Focus on highly rewarding work, and pay your fares.

I second this. Work trips are very different from personal travel, and much less fun than people assume. A well paying job with generous vacation time (real vacation, not "available via email" vacations) is better, in my opinion.

I had a job that involved a lot of travel back in the day. I worked for a telecoms installing unix workstations and oracle servers for planning radio networks (calculating signal strength per frequency over terrain and subscriber maps). I loved it, but it's not for everyone. Long periods on your own, sometimes in locked-down societies like Saudi Arabia. I ended up playing a _lot_ of Civilization 2. Still I got to go to Tanzania, South Africa, Bangladesh, Japan and lots of countries in Europe and the Middle East and occasionally got to do sight seeing at weekends. Not so great once you're married with kids.

Most of that was vacation followed by a week of domestic work travel when I got back.

It’s the same thing in Europe, Lufthansa, Easyjet, …

I did not hear it on my last four flights across Europe with Lufthansa last week.

Hm … I flew pretty much exactly two weeks ago in a couple Airbus A320 every damn airline seems to use to fly across Europe (I flew e.g. Amsterdam to Frankfurt). I wonder if that’s a recent change (to no longer mention the Note) or they just say it on certain flights (which to me would make little sense).

I wonder if it's too late to short Samsung.

Pun intended?

probably not too late, seeing as an investor suggesting a re-org caused stock to go up on the same day this issue was announced.

I bet acquisition department is on fire.
