DLD 385: Worst birthday party ever

A blue and white propeller airplane with the word "Connect" written on its side is parked on an airport tarmac. The tail of the plane features a yellow circle with a blue design. In the background, there are large, arched hangars and a fuel truck. Two airport personnel in high-visibility vests are standing near the front of the plane. The sky is clear with some light clouds. The image is credited to @WandrMe and PaxEx.Aero.

Sure, the conversations were great, but our plans for birthday festivities came up short.

DLD 374: Your airline is intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your ticketing plan

Map of the western United States highlighting major cities in California and nearby states. Cities in California include San Francisco, Sonoma, Sacramento, San Jose, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Burbank, Orange County, Palm Springs, and San Diego. Nearby cities include Reno, Las Vegas, and Phoenix. The map features stylized text for some city names and lines connecting various cities, indicating travel routes or connections.

Should you subscribe to an airline’s recurring payment offerings? Probably not. But we’re going to talk about it a bit.

DLD 350: Wider than the average show

Alt text: A view through an archway of a historic courtyard with classical architecture. The buildings on either side have a mix of red brick and stone facades with arched windows and columns. A large hanging lantern is centered in the archway, and the sky above is overcast. Benches line the walls of the courtyard, and there is a sign in the middle of the courtyard.

How does just one out of service plane cause so much trouble for a major airline?? But it worked mostly in our favor, so no complaints this time around.

DLD 327: Travel Traditions

The image shows the wing and engine of an airplane in flight, viewed from a passenger window. The sky is mostly clear with some scattered clouds, and the airplane wing extends into the distance. The engine is visible in the lower part of the image. The sky has a gradient of blue shades, indicating a high altitude. The image has a watermark in the bottom right corner with the text "PaxEx.Aero | @WandrMe".

Sometimes travel is about new and different adventures. Sometimes it is about repeating the most boring or ridiculous habits. And, when done right, it is often a great blend of both. We close out this week’s episode with some discussion of travel souvenirs that we’re constantly collecting, or at least that we did back when we traveled more.
