Customer Reviews
Good insight!
Hey guys- I enjoy popping into the lounge now and again to get some insight into an amazing industry. Keep up the great work!
If there’s one point I could raise as a critique... Seth, please work on your mic work. One minute I’m working really hard to hear you- as though you’re talking to someone else at the far end of a hallway to exploding through my earbuds. It happens very often and it’s hard to take.
I love the informality of the format. Cheers!
Too U.S. Airlines-Centric
Too U.S. Airlines Centric focusing on a lot of the American carriers. Absolutely BRILLIANT analysis and such a shame to be wasted by not focusing much more often on the global aviation sector
