Episode 228 - Here Today, Gone to ToMaui

Aired on April 8, 2024

Drew is back from Hong Kong and Doug is about to do domestic legs from Chicago, to Denver, and then to Maui. How does he pack for this? We discuss:

  • US adds 303,000 jobs, more than forecast, promising a strong summer travel season

  • Doug and Drew love to name lounges according to their themes. Is the “Captain Cook “ lounge at SFO related to Pan Am’s Clipper Club lounges?

  • Alaska Airlines reveals how much Boeing paid them in damages for the 737-9 grounding

  • SAS’ bankruptcy filing has been approved by a US court, allowing it to reorganize and exit as a stronger airline

  • Economy airline tickets are 9% more expensive than in 2019 but premium tickets are down by 3%. Is this good or bad for the airlines

  • What are the commandments from the FAR/AIM on airspeeds in different classes of air spaces?
