Maybe everyone isn’t crazy and they just have really bad ideas, right? A couple bankruptcies and a couple investments, plus a pair of new routes that just might work. C’mon in.
Lots of routes dropping in the coming months, thanks to crew shortages, shifting travel demand and maybe even fleet challenges. Another “mistake” fare scuttled and some talk about cabin density and how that translates to profits, too.
How do you stay healthy on the road? You probably don’t, and that makes you a slacker. But we’ve got a guest this week talking about how to be better about such things. C’mon in!
Come fly across the Atlantic with the crew on an LCC (in Y!) and talk about United’s newly revised A350 order, the evolution of Basic Economy and many US airlines scaling back revenue hopes for 2017.
Why Indianapolis? Why not! Delta is set to fly from Indianapolis to Paris starting in May 2018.

We’ve got two guests on the show this week to talk about Georgia (the country, not the state), Azerbaijan, and all sort of other fun bits. Nudity, massages and a bonus bit about Taipei and Andorra round out the show.
A quick bonus hit this week, covering American’s new routes to Europe and United’s new plan to keep flight attendants happy.
Regional operators and even smaller “normal” airlines in the US are facing challenges on multiple fronts. Chapter 11 and fights over international trade policy are just part of the resulting fun.
