    March 4th - Travel: Things can only get better

    March hasn't started brilliantly on the travel disruption front, with ultra-long passport queues at Stansted, a delayed flight from Gatwick and a cancelled train. But I had an appointment to talk to Decius Valmorbida, president of travel for technology firm Amadeus – and finally caught up with him at McDonald's opposite Strasbourg station.

    March 3rd - Roaming the railways of Italy

    For the past five days I have been rattling around the southernmost province of mainland Italy, Calabria. Most of the ground has been covered by train, which is a joy: affordable, usually reliable and with superb scenery. I reckon you should stick to the cheap, “classic” network rather than the high-speed trains. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

    February 28th - Annual increase of rail fares across England and Wales

    On Sunday 2nd of March, rail fares across England and Wales will rise by 4.6 per cent. Alex Robertson, chief executive of the consumer watchdog Transport Focus, has been telling me that passengers need to feel that they are getting value for money – by increasing reliability of trains. Also a reminder to buy that railcard on 28 February or 1 March, before they increase by £5 to £35. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

    February 27th - Cash is king – but where are the best deals?

    Despite the spread of contactless payments around the world, it's always useful to have some cash. And, more broadly, where are the locations where you might be wise to change some money now for a trip later in the year. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

    February 26th - Heathrow eyes a third runway by 2035

    Heathrow has just announced record passenger numbers for 2024 – but it has a much bigger prize in its sights. I have been talking to Thomas Woldbye, the chief executive of the UK's busiest airport, about his plans for the future – and the natural environmental concerns about expansion.

    February 25th - Dubai – the destination at its best in Ramadan?

    I'm talking to Issam Kazim, responsible for Dubai Tourism, about the remarkable visitor numbers and "key performance indicators" (KPIs) – and, with Ramadan about to start, the prospects for a visit during that Islamic month of fasting.

He had to fly on 15 of the 17 SkyTeam airlines in the last few months of 2024 to learn 1,000,000 frequent flyer points.
