DLD 450: Wait, there’s now lounge elite status??

Delta made waves with its SkyMiles/SkyClub rules changes last week. Plus, new seats, new routes, and an end to revenge.

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 396: So much revenue, but what about profit?

The image shows a view from an airplane window during takeoff or landing. The wing of the airplane is visible in the foreground, with the "jetblue.com" logo on the engine. Below, there is a runway and taxiway with another blue airplane on the ground. In the background, there is a body of water and a coastline with buildings and greenery.

Airlines raked in revenue in Q2, but not all of them reported a profit. And that raises a lot of bigger picture questions.

DLD 265: A luxury CRJ200 experience

The image shows a Qantas airplane parked inside a hangar at night. The aircraft has a special livery with the number "100" prominently displayed on the fuselage, likely celebrating the airline's centenary. The plane is being towed by a ground vehicle. The hangar is well-lit, and the Qantas logo is visible on the side of the plane and on the tail.

Is there such a thing as a nice CRJ200 ride? And why might a new world’s longest flight be a bad idea?? Plus another top tier got harder to realize and LAX is moving its pickup zone outside the terminal loop.

DLD 179: When we couldn’t figure out where to go

Every now and then you’ll find us together somewhere around the world. This trip ended up in Sofia, Vaduz, Stuttgart and Munich because we suffered from indecision paralysis. Some fun stories along the way, though.

PointsHoarder 34: New routes, new award searches and new planes

Lots of “new” news to share in this week’s episode, and that’s mostly a good thing compared to some of the episodes we’ve had which were all about downgrades. Don’t worry – there are still…
