133 ALA - Bundling the unbundling, Condor Brewdog, BER secret door, overhead bin booking, inaugural JetBlue, LH sneakers, with Alex Vukolova
At Layovers, we keep our promises: long time listener Alex Vukolova waited 5 years to be a guest, and this is the day, she's been awesome, for a very special show — we travel on Condor, JetBlue, Transavia, or BA, from Berlin to Almaty to New York to Tokyo and then some, and we geek out on aviation, from a rant about the bundling of the unbundling, to an admiration for Air Astana (not really for the current Almaty airport).

132 BLQ - Finnair hippos, IST hugeness, fast track lounge, Super NES passport, Midfield Tom Cruise run
We visit Bologna, Istanbul, Bari, Birmingham, Brindisi, we are in a Mission Impossible movie, and we're running like Tom Cruise over the new Midfield Terminal in Abu Dhabi.
Customer Reviews
Why are you two so much fun to listent to?
I apologise if I’m writing you too many reviews, but you two are the most entertaining and enjoyable to listen to. The info and facts you give are just perfect and to the point and exactly what I have been experiencing in travel lately. From bad service in business class and overcrowded lounges. Keep it up and can’t wait to meet one of you again in person somewhere in this lovely world. Keep it up.
