How to cheat an Armenian...

If you're an airline, this year's answer for November is to switch from quoting prices for plane tickets in dollars, to Euros. No big deal, right? So a $900 ticket on October 31 costs 612 Euros - and the price in dram of course is unchanged. WRONG! The $900 ticket of October 31 is now about 900 euros, and the price in dollars and dram just shot up a WHOPPING FORTY SEVEN PERCENT! (Yes, 47%).

Let me be the first to wish you a Shnorhavor Nor Dari yev Surp Dz'nunt on behalf of the airlines here. You need not wish them a happy new year in return, because already it's going to be the best they've ever had!
