Flights Canceled in South Pacific

The fallout from the volcanic ash cloud spreading over south-east Australia has widened with Qantas, Jetstar and Tiger cancelling all flights in and out of Adelaide. Jetstar has also cancelled all of today's flights in and out of Tasmania and flights to and from New Zealand.

While most of the ash plume is south of the Australian mainland, some is hovering eight to 11 kilometres above Tasmania, Adelaide and New Zealand and is not forecast to move significantly for the next 24 hours.

Virgin Australia CEO Sean Donohue says their decision to continue flying is based on safety assessments and not marketing.

very cool space! I love your taste and it looks like it'd be so much fun to poke around in there... I used to live in DE but am now in VA, but if I ever go back that way to visit family I'd love to see it in person :)
