Log into eBay as you normally do and change your password. That way you will be sure you are not being directed to a hacker eBay look alike site from an email link.

As mentioned above - yes they got hacked and yes you should change your password.
Whether the email is a phish is anyone's guess - emails to me from eBay are generally directed straight to the bin without opening, so I wouldn't have noticed a legitimate one.

The clue that an email is a phishing email is that the email will contain a link of some sort to a website.
Genuine warning emails, nowadays, do not contain URLS or telephone/address information.
They rely on you knowing where to log in to change your details.
The ebay email I got contained no URLs so I knew it was genuine - as well as following the news I knew that I was due for an email from ebay.
So my general rule is - if the email contains a URL or contact information from the sender - it is in all probability a phishing email.

From the article: As the pilot was being treated, another dire call came over the speakers: “are there any non-revenue pilots on board? Please ring your call button.”
Why only non-revenue pilots?

I guess they assumed to known for sure there was none of their professional pilots on board.

I hope the airline is giving these two people free upgrades to first class for life. Heck, free flights anywhere in the world.

I don't think so, when Shakespeare first said it there was a bit of uproar but society has moved on since then.
