*Amazon wants to copy NFL's 'Thursday Night Football' for the NBA*

Amazon is one of the frontrunners to get a chunk of the NBA's next media rights deal, and it's looking to bring some NFL flavor into the NBA. According to a report by Front Office Sports, Amazon (AMZN) - Get Free Report is interested in creating an exclusive night to stream the NBA with the goal replicating its NFL "Thursday Night Football" formula.Related: Experts weigh in on the NBA’s next media deal and whether ESPN can fend off Amazon and Apple The NBA's current media rights deal with The Walt Disney Company's (DIS) - Get Free Report ESPN/ABC and Warner Bros.

It's reportedly seeking around $50 to $75 billion for its next deal, up from its $24 billion during its last deal that kicked in at the start of the 2016-17 season. The league is still within the window to negotiate exclusively with ESPN and TNT, but reports have suggested that the NBA could be looking to add a third partner.

*A major airline is letting customers pay $30 for elbow room*

While many travelers will remember scoring that elusive free row of economy seats on an empty plane, even a single free seat next to you has become increasingly rare in 2023. More and more, airlines are planning routes to minimize the number of planes flying half-empty and spreading out staff based on routes with the most travelers amid the surge of demand (and dearth of staff to meet it) post-pandemic.Related: American Airlines Clashes With Passenger Over Popular Travel Hack While TikTok is currently bursting with dubious "travel hacks" promising to keep the seat next to one's ticketed place free, one airline is turning this around and offering it to those who pay. shutterstock Here's what you need to know about Qantas' new neighbor-free seating Qantas Airways (QUBSF) - Get Free Report, which is Australia's flagship air carrier, officially debuted its "Neighbour Free Seating" service on Oct. 21 – passengers who want to guarantee they do not have anyone sitting next to them on an international flight can pay $45 Australian dollars (roughly $28 USD) for flights between Australia and New Zealand, $100 AUD ($63 USD) for flights between Australia and Singapore and $225 ($142 USD) for long-haul flights between Australia and the U.S. More Travel:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane All in all, the service will be available on 19 international flights and is meant to test how popular the option is before rolling it out to more and shorter flights. Some of the routes slated to have the option include Sydney-Dallas, Sydney-Honolulu and Los Angeles-Melbourne. "The data shows it's most popular with customers on our longer flights between the east and west coasts, so rolling it out to our international flights makes a lot of sense," Qantas' Chief Customer And Digital Officer Catriona Larritt said in a statement. As the service depends on how full the flight gets and the seat selection patterns of the travelers, one will only know if the service is available closer to departure — two days before the flight, Qantas will send those who are eligible an email asking them if they'd like to pay extra to ensure the seat next to them does not have a neighbor. According to the seat selection map shared by Qantas, one will then be able to see a map of standard economy seats which can be booked with either the middle or window seat empty. Two people traveling together can also select to have an empty seat between or next to them. Is neighbor-free seating the answer for decreasing plane seat sizes? This service is currently available for economy travelers and is independent of getting an upgrade into premium economy. Qantas also warns that neighbor free seats "may need to be changed for operational, safety or security reasons even after boarding the aircraft" in which case the money paid will be refunded. Qantas' experiment will show the industry how airlines can give passengers who need more space the opportunity to pay for it without outright charging two seats or losing money on seats flying empty. Earlier this year, plus-size travel influencer Kirsty Leanne went viral for documenting how she asks flight attendants if they can find her a seat with an empty one next to it on flights — while flight attendants sometimes do this if there are free ones, other airlines may soon follow Qantas' lead in looking to turn this into a paid option.

*Ford is beating electric vehicle giant Tesla in one important area*

One of Tesla's biggest claims to fame is its self-driving technology, a system that began as the driver-assist program Autopilot and has since spawned Full-Self Driving as well. Despite the terminology, neither piece of technology results in the car driving itself; both require the driver's attention. Despite Tesla (TSLA) - Get Free Report CEO Elon Musk's confidence in FSD, to the point of offering to license the tech to other OEMs, the company's Autopilot is lagging behind the competition, according to Consumer Reports. And of all the different active driving assist programs (ADA), (F) - Get Free Report Ford's is the best. Related: Why Elon Musk changed his Tesla tune between the second and third quarters ADA systems, which function as a sort of enhanced adaptive cruise control, complete with lane-centering technology, have recently become quite popular, with availability on more than half of 2023 model-year cars, according to CR. While Ford's ADA BlueCruise is a long way off from self-driving, the resultant, collaborative experience "can make driving more relaxing." Of the 17 systems tested, Tesla's Autopilot landed firmly in the middle of the pack. The reason behind this lag is that Tesla hasn't changed the core functionality of Autopilot since it came out, Jake Fisher, CR’s senior director of auto testing, said. The tech still doesn't have collaborative steering or an effective driver monitoring system. "Tesla has simply fallen behind," he said. The same area where Tesla has fallen behind is one in which Ford's BlueCruise excels: driver monitoring and safety. These systems can become dangerous when they lull drivers into a false sense of security; driver attention is a paramount link to driver safety. Ford's BlueCruise, in addition to General Motors' Super Cruise, uses direct driver monitoring systems that leverage infrared cameras to ensure a diver's eyes are on the road at all times. The car will sound alerts if the driver's eyes waver after just a few seconds; if the eyes don't return to the road, the system begins to slow the car down. Related: What's stopping Tesla from achieving Level 3 self-driving CR safety experts said that this type of system represents the "key to the safety of an ADA system." “If an automaker is going to equip a car with an ADA system, they should put in adequate safeguards — or not include both lane centering assistance and adaptive cruise control at all,” Kelly Funkhouser, CR’s manager of vehicle technology, said. CR granted Ford's BlueCruise an overall score of 84, with slight mark-downs for ease of use. (GM) - Get Free Report General Motors' Super Cruise was the runner-up, with a score of 75. Tesla's Autopilot landed at eight of 17, with a high score for performance but low scores in safety and driver engagement. Without an "adequate driver monitoring camera," Funkhouser said, Tesla's Autopilot is "potentially unsafe as there’s no way to know whether the driver is still paying attention when the vehicle starts moving again." Ford, whose stock is down for the year over pressure from the UAW auto strikes, will report earnings after the bell on Oct. 26.

*An airline just launched one of the country's longest domestic flights*

While the title for longest commercial flight in the world will soon be taken over by the 20-hour and 10,576-mile journey between Sydney and London that Australia's Qantas Airways (QUBSF) - Get Free Report is preparing to launch in 2025, the U.S. is a big country with a number of long-haul domestic flights on its own. Without even looking at U.S. territories overseas such as Guam or American Samoa, one can spend more than 10 hours in the air and end up only in another state. Some of the longest domestic flights in the U.S. include routes from Boston to Honolulu in Hawaii and Chicago to Alaska's Anchorage.Related: The World's Longest Flight Is a New Route: Here's Where It Goes In a move to bring more service from mainland U.S. to Alaska, Alaska Airlines (ALK) - Get Free Report is about to launch its longest flight yet that is subsequently also one of the longest in the country — the route from New York's JFK to Anchorage International Airport will take over seven hours and cross 3,386 miles.

More Travel:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane "We're eager to welcome guests to our great state from the city that never sleeps to the land of the midnight sun on Alaska's new nonstop flight," Jillian Simpson, president and CEO of the Alaska Travel Industry Association, said in a statement. "There's so much to do in Anchorage and in the smaller towns nearby, mapping out your itinerary might be the toughest thing you do before heading west." The route is part of Alaska Airlines' wider efforts to expand its coverage between Alaska and the mainland U.S. On May 18, it will also launch a nonstop route between Anchorage and San Diego that will take just over six hours and span nearly 2,500 miles. While the airline serves many Californian cities, San Diego's smaller size meant that residents would have previously needed to transfer in Seattle or LA on their way to Alaska.New routes meant to serve both burgeoning tourist interest and local demand After adding the new flights, Alaska Airlines expects to have 63 flights a day leaving from Anchorage during the summer of 2024. This is designed to meet the burgeoning traveler interest in the state as well as serve Alaskans who are separated from large American cities by geography. "Alaskans like to get out," the airline said in announcing the new routes. "Sometimes that might mean hitting all the must-sees in New York City or taking surf lessons in SoCal. We'll make it more convenient for our guests to get there from Anchorage, as well as lots of other places." For those who are able to make travel plans this far in advance, both the New York and San Diego flights to Anchorage are already available for booking on Alaska Airlines' website. The former starts at $400 each way for mid-week departures, while flying into the state from San Diego will cost from $300.

*An electric vehicle rival mimics Tesla with a key marketing move*

It’s not exactly a race to the bottom – at least not yet – but another EV maker is cutting prices on one of its highly-touted vehicles that hasn't been a huge hit with buyers. This time it’s Fisker (FSR) - Get Free Report that’s cutting prices on select EVs. The Manhattan Beach, Cal.-based company founded by Henrik Fisker in 2016 is slashing the price of its Fisker Ocean Extreme electric SUV by $7,500, to $61,499 from $68,999.Related: Why Tesla stock is crumbling — and where it could go next The Ocean Extreme is a high-end vehicle that offers equally high-end hopes for Fisker. The vehicle features a 113 kWh battery pack and an EPA range of 360 miles, which Fisker notes is the longest range of any new electric SUV in its class. The new price goes into effect immediately, the company noted in an October 23 statement. Any Extreme customer who purchased or ordered the SUV will earn a $7,500 price adjustment, the company added. That’s the case even if the Extreme has already moved into production.

With no CEO, retailer hurtles towards crisis Fisker joins other EV makers who’ve cut vehicle prices in 2023, largely due to lower-than-expected consumer demand. In early October, industry leader Tesla (TSLA) - Get Free Report slashed sticker prices on its Model 3 and Model Y EVs after software Q3 deliveries. Entry-level prices for the Model 3 now clock in at $38,990 and the Model Y starting price now stands at $45,990. That’s new pricing territory for EV manufacturers, as new buyers can also leverage an up to $7,500 U.S. government tax credit to grab an EV for close to $30,000. Now Fisker joins the discounted EV movement. “It is essential that Fisker responds to competitive realities in the rapidly growing EV market,” Chairman and CEO Henrik Fisker said. “We want our customers to have greater access to the Ocean and to be able to take advantage of its exciting combination of innovative features, striking design, sustainable materials, and class-leading range.” In a unique pivot, Fisker is simultaneously boosting the price of its Ocean Ultra and Sport models, with the former moving up from $49,999 to $52,999, while the latter rises from $37,499 to $38,499, the company reported.
