Air New Zealand, who were recently ranked as the best airline in the world, have announced that they will now be weighing passengers before they get onto the airplane. The new survey will only be for passengers on international flights going out of Auckland, Air NZ says, and that the info will be completely confidential. Passengers' weights will be anonymous, and even the person managing the scale will not see the weights on their screens; the info is directly and anonymously entered into the data. The airline stated that the survey is to help gather information on the weight load and distribution of the plane, and will be used to help further improve their flights.


On another note, Canada is now taking a step to stop cigarette use. Health Canada has recently announced that cigarettes in Canada must now have warnings on each individual cigarette, making it the first country in the world to do so. The warnings will be in English and French, and include the phrases, "poison in every puff,” “tobacco smoke harms children,” and “cigarettes cause impotence.” They also said that they are aiming for the new strategy to reduce tobacco use to under 5% by 2035, as tobacco use kills approximately 48,000 Canadians per year.
