Tradition is important. In this case that tradition is drinking in Europe in the winter. And, as we have for several years now, recording an episode while in various stages of drunkenness. So here’s the 2017 edition from Hamburg…
Dots
- Heathrow is where we started the show, with some interesting slot swaps coming between Delta and Croatia Airlnes
Lines
- United is trimming service to Auckland and retiring its 747s faster than expected
- We all flew strange routes to get to Hamburg. Except Seth, who arrived by train and left by car because he’s a jerk.
Destination
- Hamburg. Duh! Awesome city to visit and the Airbus factory tour is pretty cool, among other things.
- Belarus also gets some love this week thanks to positive changes in visa rules
