A bit of a challenge this week to get past the very real suffering of war and have a conversation about what it means in the context of aviation. But we’re trying.
Should you subscribe to an airline’s recurring payment offerings? Probably not. But we’re going to talk about it a bit.
Kicking off the show with a bad conspiracy theory about hurricanes probably isn’t our strongest play, but here we are. It gets better pretty quickly.
We’re about more than just airplanes, especially these days. But don’t worry too much; air travel still dominates the conversation this week.
Booking inaugural routes is almost as fun as flying them, right?? Plus A321Ts parked, AirAsia Japan dying and United’s November growth plans.
More openings than closings should be good news for lots in the industry, though things remain precarious on many fronts.
When an airline says it is concerned about passenger safety and then increases the number of seats sold that can be hard to reconcile. But at least they’re leaving it members of their cabin crew to keep posting anti-mask FUD on social media, right??
Cutting money-losing programs makes sense in many cases. Selling off a profitable segment of the business is less normal. But here we are.
As award charts disappear is loyalty following them out the door? Plus a new A350 cabin and more MAX grounding discussions.
Is American’s new LAX terminal a bet against JFK? Why is Hertz joining SkyTeam? And what the heck is going on at British Airways??
