In fact, regulators say the property has a one-in-four-chance of serious flooding. For most builders, this stretch of Florida real estate is the place NOT to be. But that hasn’t deterred Manny Varas.
Delta Air Lines is taking a bold step to retool its fare-setting engine: by the end of 2025, AI will determine ticket prices on one out of every five domestic flights.
