February 22
2h 33m

Episode Description

The road that Lufthansa took to get to their new business class seemed somewhat long and convoluted, Paul is finally able to tell you if it was worth the wait (choosing a seat on Allegris might be as long and convoluted a process though).
And hey, there are no less than 5 outside cameras on their 350!
How to strike gold after gold at JFK Terminal 1 and be faster than fast-track.
Vinod finally gets the satisfaction of flying aboard an Air Canada A330, do the nuances of in-flight service and crew dynamics hit him then?
We opine on a few anniversary liveries, there's one we love ("DEADLY"), there's one we're not sure about.
Ever wanted a flight tracker on your desk? Jetclock is a pretty cool one.
What Vinod prioritizes when he chooses a seat in business class (which he kinda goes against when he chooses a seat in premium economy!)
Tasting thousands of wine for an airline? Where do we apply?
Air Canada, please introduce those lesley stowe raincoast crisps on-board (and for the love of God. someone import them to the UK, says Paul!)

We mentioned: JetClock
(The link Paul promised is here, but the live ATC feeds sadly do not seem to work anymore: https://listentothe.cloud/ )

See you in the next one, happy flying!
