Non-Stop or Direct Flight: There's a Difference.

Many people use the terms "non-stop" and "direct" interchangeably. But both mean very different things and understanding the difference can save you time and headache when booking your next flight.

Business Insider published a great article that clearly outlines the differences between "non-stop" and "direct flight"  The main difference is a direct flight includes a layover and does not change flight numbers as the flight continues. Often passengers remain seated on the plane at the layover stop while other passengers leave and board.

'The Great Comet' Dispute Resolved

(image credit: greatcometbroadway.com)
Last week I posted about the dispute between the lead producer of the new musical 'Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812' which resulted in litigation. A couple of days later it appears the dispute is resolved.

Variety reports:
The dispute between the commercial producers of  Broadway musical “Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812” and the not-for-profit theater where the project originated has arrived at a resolution, according to a spokesperson for the show.

The new agreement, which both sides have opted to keep private, sees Ars Nova given more prominent credit with the lawsuit dropped in recompense.

The dust-up gets at the heart of the tensions that can underlie the increasingly close relationship between commercial producers and not-for-profit organizations. The issue of credit can be enormously important both for a not-for-profit, which gets a boost in prestige and prominence from a successful Broadway transfer, and for the commercial producers, eager to be credited for their own contributions in moving the show on to a future life.
