Giving readers start or sit advice for some of the toughest players to evaluate in Week 3 of the 2026 fantasy football season.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says the U.S. needs an additional $30 billion from Congress to modernize the U.S. aviation infrastructure.

With most charter airlines and private jet brokers operating as private businesses and lacking the financial resources of publicly-traded commercial airlines, bankruptcies in a space as expensive as aviation are not uncommon.

This week, San Marino-based private jet operator Limitless Aviation was reported to no longer have a valid air operator’s certificate (AOC). Without this critical authorization, an airline is unable to run or sell flights to passengers.

Air Mountain, a small charter airline that flew into ski resorts in The Alps from cities like Geneva and London, also filed for bankruptcy protection in June 2026.

Luxaviation no longer has active AOC or running flights: Report

The latest name to join that list is, as first reported by Swiss aviation publication ch-aviation, the Portuguese branch of private aircraft operator Luxaviation.

Launched out of the European country of Luxembourg in 2008 with a single Cessna Citation XLS, Luxaviation offered clients a network of on-demand flights from its bases in Luxembourg, Paris and London to various destinations across Europe, North America and the Middle East.

In 2015, Luxaviation expanded beyond Luxembourg and into the Portuguese market by acquiring local private jet operator Masterjet and building out an arm serving wealthy travelers flying into and out of Portugal.

Current reporting by ch-aviation states that Luxaviation has had its Portuguese AOC license permanently revoked as the rest of the aviation group continues operations. Without it, any flights that Luxaviation Portugal may have had scheduled for the future weeks or months are canceled by default since it cannot legally run them.

What is the current status of European private jet operator Luxaviation

Luxaviation could not be immediately reached for clarification on its current state. Common reasons for a lost AOC usually involve either financial insolvency or inactivity. At its peak, Luxaviation had a fleet of dozens of aircraft ranging from helicopters and short-field planes to several ultra-long-range jets for transatlantic flights.

“Masterjet holds a Portuguese AOC, is headquartered in Lisbon and operates business jets from Paris/Le Bourget,” the company wrote of itself on its website. “With its 44 employees in Paris and 13 aviation experts based in Lisbon, Masterjet operates a fleet of eight business jets ranging from Falcon- to Learjet- type aircrafts as well as a wide body Airbus 320, mainly targeting ‘head of state’ clients.”

These airlines also lost their licenses in recent months:

Izhavia: Russian regional airline Izhavia had its AOC revoked by the country’s aviation regulatory agency in July 2026 as Western sanctions over Russia’s war in Ukraine left the country’s aviation industry crippled by lack of Western parts and lowered ability to ensure maintenance standards.

Bestfly Aircraft Management Aruba: The Caribbean branch of the African charter airline Bestfly Aircraft Management Aruba lost its AOC in May 2026. The Aruban branch was established in 2017 to run flights between the Caribbean countries of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao.

Starflite Aviation: Houston-based Starflite Aviation had its AOC license revoked in March 2026, amid FAA claims that owners falsified pilot training records to bypass safety audits.

AlpAvia: Slovenian charter airline AlpAvia also shut down in March 2026 over a long string of financial problems and a revoked AOC.

Why we love this deal

Whether you’re lying down in bed, sitting on the sofa, or lounging in your favorite chair, it’s always useful to have a side table close by. A side table provides a convenient surface to keep your essentials within arm’s reach, from the book you’re reading to the beverage you’re sipping on. They also provide storage, with many options offering open storage, hidden storage, or a mixture of both. And if you know what to look for, some side tables come with outlets and ports that are so convenient for powering up devices, like a decorative lamp or your phone.

Side tables can be quite affordable, too. The Hoobro Side Table and Charging Station is on sale for just $25 at Amazon, and it has a compact design with useful features. Even at its full price of $30, it’s a steal, but that extra 17% off is a welcome discount for budget-savvy shoppers.

Why do shoppers love it?

Add a touch of farmhouse charm, along with convenient storage, to your space with this side table from Amazon. It features two tiers that provide extra space to keep your essentials. The top tier is great for decor, a set of coasters to hold a drink, some candles, or maybe even a bedside humidifier as the air starts to get drier during the chilly fall season. The bottom tier provides even more storage, and it’s perfect for adding a decorative storage box or basket to conceal clutter.

In addition to providing extra storage even in small spaces, there’s an added level of convenience, thanks to its charging station. The top tier features one three-prong AC outlet, one USB port, and one Type-C port, so you don’t have to move heavy furniture or walk too far to get to the nearest outlet. It’s great for plugging in a lamp to get some ambient lighting or to charge your phone or laptop while you watch TV.

Details to know

Dimensions: 15 inches long by 11 inches wide by 21.7 inches high.

Material: Engineered wood and metal.

Charging station: One three-prong AC outlet, one USB port, and one USB Type-C port.

Colors: Seven.

Amazon shoppers praise the side table for its design, convenience, and ease of assembly. “It’s sturdy and well-made. It looks a lot more expensive than what it actually costs, and the material is good quality,” a reviewer said. “It was very, very easy to put together. It’s also very easy to clean. Having an outlet right next to my bed is honestly a big plus.”

While many said it’s great for small spaces, some shoppers said they wished it was taller. At 21.7 inches high, it’s shorter than the 24-inch height you typically find with other side tables. Since it’s on the shorter side, it’s best suited next to low-profile beds or sofas.
