    Ep 93: Passenger Dies on Singapore Airlines Flight & Can AI Plan Your Next Trip?

    Join hosts Kenny and Conner as they discuss the preliminary findings of an investigation into the tragic incident on Singapore Airlines flight SQ321. On May 21, the Boeing 777-300ER, flying from London to Singapore, encountered extreme turbulence over Myanmar. This sudden turbulence caused a rapid change in gravitational force and a 54-meter (177 ft) altitude drop, resulting in the death of a 73-year-old passenger from a suspected heart attack and injuries to dozens of others. The flight, carrying 211 passengers and 18 crew members, diverted to Bangkok for an emergency landing after the turbulence flung passengers and crew around the cabin. In the second part of the episode, Kenny and Conner explore the potential for AI giants like OpenAI, Google, and META to revolutionize the travel industry. Can these tech behemoths plan your next trip? Tune in to find out! Tune in for all this and more on the Travel Nerds Podcast! Enjoy, subscribe, and follow us on our socials!
