Episode 118 - Australia is Open for Business

Aired on February 28, 2022

The world is starting to open up but will Russia’s invasion of Ukraine change everything? We discuss the breaking news of countries closing their airspace to Russia and the unfortunate destruction of the heaviest airplane in the world, the Antonov 225, Myria. We get a lot of feedback from you regarding the use of the term “gas” versus “fuel”, you do a deeper dive into our Flyover States segment, and you offer more airports named after famous people in your neck of the “tarmac”. Also on this episode:

• Marriot doubles revenue despite Omicron

• Will there be a major travel and tourism recovery this year?

• We discuss high winds in our Ops Center topic
