Hi Steven
Believe it is a magazine that's available in the UC section
The regular UC V-Flyers will have more details though
I wouldn't worry that your missing much. As Highflyer says, its a trendy mag. So trendy in fact that IMHO it passes over into uninteligable, poseur, tripe.
Just to add some balance, I believe there are some members here who enjoy reading it, and no doubt they will be along to sing its praises in a minute. Unfortunately though, I am not one of them.

And I am one! Even after getting through the Grauniad like typos that litter it.
It's really a bit of fluff to while away the time but does have some fun and interesting stuff ... occasionally.
btw Steven are you related to Holly?

There's a plane at JFK, to fly you back from far away

Carlos is a strange publication.
First one I ever saw was earlier this year and had the excellent article on Las Vegas as preiffer mentioned. There was one other amusing list in there.
The one I picked up last week I have only thumbed through and so far cann ot find anything remotely interesting or funny.
I like the idea of it being something different but it would semm to be very hit and miss.

Hi SLinky - yes, I am realted to Holly - and you are the first person today to ask me.............
I pretty much love it. My favorite article ever was a list of songs on Paul Smith's i-Pod.
I remember that, i think they did it for a whole load of celebrities as i found it interesting reading.
Now, if they had listed the songs on our very own Paul's iPod - that would be hilarious!
On my last trip I asked for a copy of Carlos (of which I managed to read about half before the lure of more Laurent Perrier proved too great - I simply can not rave enough about the wine list upgrade!), and the FSM was shocked. He informed me that I was the first passenger ever to ask him for a copy.
He promptly took the stock out of storage and placed them all in the magazine rack. By the end of the flight, half of the passengers had a copy. It seems you really have to know it's there.

To completely go into tangent-land, I will say that my favourite in-transit publication of any sort is the little London "things to do" magazine they put in Heathrow Express. There's a column of "unknown" cool things to see/do in London written by the concierge at Claridge's that just rivals anything I've ever seen.
Happy holidays!

I concur, it even makes me want to stay at Claridge, instead of my favourite One Aldwych.
Cheers

Note to anyone confused by the two topics - A new one has been started here specifically relating to the news that Carlos is to be scrapped.
