Chick-fil-a wants you to put down your phone and enjoy some family time while you’re eating your delicious chicken. About 150 of their restaurants have added “cell phone coops” to their tables.

The comrades at United Airlines are joining the revolution. They want to provide regularly scheduled flights to Havana from Chicago and three other U.S. cities.
