Low-cost carrier members of airline alliances[edit]

I was just wondering, among the major airline alliances (Star Alliance, SkyTeam and Oneworld), do they currently have members which are low-cost airlines? Air Berlin doesn't count, as it's not a low-cost carrier anymore. I'm aware that most low-cost carriers don't want to join airline alliances for various reasons (indeed, airline alliances and the concept itself are mainly targeted towards full-service/legacy carriers), but are there low-cost carriers that nevertheless are members of an alliance? I could check each alliance's list of members, but that would be a little tedious. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 14:42, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Where is this place?[edit]

[[1]] work-safe, Nescafe ad. What city is it? OsmanRF34 (talk) 18:43, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to make a wild guess it is Johannesburg. The language is either Dutch or Afrikaans. Parts of the cityscape are obviously cgi-ed. μηδείς (talk) 01:44, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely not Jo'burg and not Afrikaans (which I am fluent in) so I'm guessing it's Dutch. It does not look like any city in South Africa that I know. That river with the bridge suggests somewhere in Europe to me. 196.214.78.114 (talk) 07:13, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps at 0:01 left the Montevideo (Rotterdam). Perhaps the intention is to show how the morning coffee transforms Rotterdam (the rest is not exactly Rotterdam). --Pp.paul.4 (talk) 07:18, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How much is this Kenneth Cole watch worth?[edit]

My mom got this watch for free from a friend in Hollywood who apparently gets free gifts from celebrities due to his profession. Here's a gallery of photos. I know nothing else about it. Any experts around here? How much do you think it's worth? I tried making a post on reddit's r/Watches but they're really rude and a bot removed it (?).

Try to find an equivalent clock in a web-shop. Amazon, for example, has them, but the most expensive is not much more than $200. OsmanRF34 (talk) 18:59, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
