Stranded at the airport? Don’t forget Rule 240. You could be flying out on time with another airline.

  1. My mom raised Aracuna hens for a while. That breed always lays green eggs.

  2. I raised Araucana hens for years and had a whole hen house full of green and blueish-green eggs. I don’t get why this is newsworthy?!??

  3. Sorry, Miss C, Rule 240 is no longer valid, according to my boyfriend’s travel agent mom. but, most ticket agents/gatepeople aren’t aware of the change (or were never aware of it to begin with, and its easy to confuse them if you start screaming about numbered rules). So I suggest attempting to invoke this fabulous, though no longer valid, rule.

  4. I have a cousin who bought some specific types of hens that lay pink, blue, and green eggs. They taste the same as normal eggs, but the whites were tinted just slightly and matched the outside shell. Apparently, hens can be bought especially for the color of egg they lay. I’m with AbbyJoy: how is this a big deal?

  5. WarTiger, the article says just that. But the author found that many airlines will honor the old system if you ask nicely.
