It's the commercial where they are having a wedding and a lot of out of town relatives arrive. During the commercial it shows the bride and groom jumping over a small broom. Does anyone know the significance of that? I've never seen it at a wedding before.

Yes
This is an African-American custom dating back to slavery. Slaves were not allowed to officially marry, and this was a symbol for them.
It is called "Jumping the broom"
That should be a good start for you.

The airline is rather sturdy and between the a lot less airways with respectable legroom. they have a low passenger grievance fee and a low mishandled bags fee. Flight attendants are truly intense constructive and they do grant out loose snacks talked about as Luv Bites.
