DLD 420: Widget watch, with Ed

Alt text: The image shows the interior of an airport terminal with a high, curved ceiling made up of large, light-colored panels. Below the ceiling, there are signs indicating directions to gates labeled "K" with arrows pointing left and right. The area is well-lit with overhead lighting, and there are structural columns supporting the ceiling. An exit sign is visible on the right side of the image.

We’re joined this week by special guest Ed Pizza of Miles to Go and Pizza In Motion to talk about changing allegiances and the rest of the latest news.

DLD 419: Where are the mascots?

Alt text: A group of people, including two mascots, are standing in front of an Avelo airplane on an airport tarmac. The group appears to be celebrating, with one person holding a large pair of scissors and a ribbon being cut. The airplane is painted in purple and white with the Avelo logo visible. The sky is partly cloudy, and an airport control tower is visible in the background.

Competing university mascots at an inaugural flight? Sure, why not. It is Delaware, after all.

DLD 418: Flying on funky wings

New wing designs, and new engines hanging from them, could change the way we fly. Or at least make it more efficient.

DLD 416: Going Retro(fit)

The image shows the interior of an airport terminal. The terminal features a high, glass-paneled ceiling with metal beams and columns. There are escalators in the foreground leading up to the main concourse area. The concourse has various signs indicating directions to all gates, ticketing, and other airport services. There is a large American flag hanging prominently in the background. The terminal is decorated with holiday wreaths and garlands, suggesting a festive season. There are also some people visible in the distance, likely passengers or airport staff.

Refreshing cabins is a nice touch, but why does it take so long?? Also, how long will it take Southwest to pay out all the comp it owes.

DLD 413: Living the Dream(liner)

A United Airlines airplane is flying over a large body of water with an island visible below. The sky is partly cloudy, and the aircraft is shown in profile with the airline's logo and name clearly visible on the fuselage and tail.

Just a couple hundred (more) new planes coming to United through the end of the decade. Nothing to get excited about here.

DLD 412: Dollar dollar bills, y’all

The image shows the interior of an airport terminal. The ceiling features a series of large, curved beams with a skylight running down the center, allowing natural light to illuminate the space. Below, there are seating areas with people waiting, some looking at their phones or talking. In the background, there are signs indicating gates and other airport facilities. The overall atmosphere is typical of an airport waiting area, with a modern and spacious design.

Singapore Airlines is out spending cash like it is 2019 again, so that seems to be good news for other airlines.
