Friggatriskaidekaphobia!

We all know that Friday the 13th is unlucky - but I imagine most of us just ignore the combination of day and date and get on with our lives.  But apparently, there are enough people who take the superstition seriously to cause significant changes in certain aspects of life.  A website which tracks the cost of air travel has found that flying today can save you anything up to 25% compared with other days this month. And it's not just in this country, but over most of Europe it seems.  By the way, if you want to know why it's considered unlucky, see my post dated 13/10/2007.
