Today we'll go on a slightly softer note and discuss our travel hacks and preferences. Bertrand and I often are asked, "What do you guys travel with? What do you prefer to travel with? What are your travel hacks?" And a few other questions in this world of hamster wheel travelling.Today we'll share a bunch of our preferences. We'll share a lot of the things we travel with, from luggage to electronics to other services and devices. We will share to the best of our knowledge, how to really do it in style, if that's at all possible, once you're in that hamster wheel. We'll share some of our hacks, not only for business travelling, but also for leisure travelling. Interesting stuff. We all have our hacks. We all have our stuff going on.PREFERENCES TRAVELAirlines, alliances, loyalty programsMaybe we start with airlines and all the things around that. Bertrand.Bertrand SchmittYeah, sure. Don't get me started on Air France, who cancelled on me a huge quantity of miles without alerting me, without notice, just a few weeks before I was supposed to take a flight. I will try my best to never use them again.Nuno Goncalves PedroIt was that bad. Air France is out, so that's the beginning. Let's maybe talk about the guys who are in. I'll give you my top airlines around the world. Obviously this depends. Depends if you have to travel through that region or if you're travelling to that region. My favourites, I think maybe not sure if it's in full order, but I would say Emirates, obviously, Qatar Airways. If you're hubbing through Middle East or if you're going to the Middle East, two amazing airlines, probably two of the best in the world.I would say maybe Emirates is my favourite now. I have to be thoughtful in how I put that forward. Qatar is also exceptional, obviously if you're hubbing through Doha. Incredible airline as well. The Asian ones in general, we'll leave the Chinese for a second because that's a different ballgame all together. Let's not say all Asian ones and obviously different ones are great.I'd say Singapore Airlines continues being systematically an exceptional airline. They've become very expensive, but an exceptional airline. A little bit SOP driven, only airline in the world, true story, that I complained not once or twice, but three times on the same incident, and I actually never got a response from them on an incident which is interesting. In general, service is exceptional. Their facilities at Changi Airport are exceptional. The planes are really well-kept, the food is great, very attentious, and really like them.Cathay, I haven't flown with them in a while. They went through a bit of a slump at some point. They were my favourite for a long time. Then they went through a bit of a slump in terms of product in particular, in terms of the quality of the product, in terms of the quality of the seats, service on board, et cetera. I've heard positive things recently, so maybe worthwhile putting them back on my Top 5 list around the world.Then the Korean Airlines in general are pretty strong on s...

Two companies bid to become the Brand New Air Traffic Control System prime integrator, FAA issues carry-on SAFO, 737 MAX production limits eased, P&W and GE adaptive cycle engines, Sikorsky contract for CH-53K helicopters, and Sergei Sikorsky passes away at age 100. Aviation News Two bidders vie to be project manager of massive FAA US air traffic overhaul Two bids to become the prime integrator in the FAA's project to overhaul the air traffic control system have been received. Congress has approved $12.5 billion for the Brand New Air Traffic Control System (BNATCS), and the Agency has indicated that an additional $19 billion might be requested. The bids come from two DC Beltway companies: Peraton is a national security company owned by Veritas Capital and headquartered in Reston, Virginia. See the press release: Peraton Offers the FAA a Brand New Approach for Its Revolutionary ATC Modernization Initiative. Parsons Corporation is a technology provider in national security and global infrastructure markets. Headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia, Parsons confirmed it has bid with IBM. The FAA says it will make a selection by the end of October. FAA urges airlines to discourage passengers from taking bags during evacuations The FAA issued Safety Alert for Operators (SAFO 25003, PDF) titled “Addressing Risk Associated with Passenger Non-Compliance and Retention of Carry-On Baggage and Personal Items During Emergency Evacuations.” The SAFO “Serves to emphasize the operational and safety-critical importance of strict passenger compliance with crewmember instructions during emergency evacuations. Specifically, it addresses the adverse effects of passengers attempting to evacuate with carry-on items, which can significantly impede evacuation procedures and increase the potential for injury or fatality.” FAA Signals Easing of Oversight on Boeing Jets The FAA is expecting to restore Boeing's ability to conduct safety sign-offs on new 737 MAX jets. Final airworthiness certificates will continue to be issued by the regulator The FAA is also considering increasing Boeing's 737 MAX production cap from 38 to 42 planes per month. Engines for America's F-47 Sixth Gen Combat Aircraft Coming Together Faster Than Expected The F-47 is being developed as part of the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) Family of Systems. It's a stealthy air superiority aircraft that can directly engage adversaries on the ground and in the air. It will be able to fly itself as well as collaborate with and control wingman drones. The propulsion system being developed under the Next Generation Adaptive Propulsion (NGAP) program is a concept that offers two modes of operation, which can be dynamically adjusted in flight: high thrust and high speed, and lower thrust with reduced fuel burn. Adaptive cycle engines can modulate the bypass ratio and fan pressure using a third air stream and advanced variable geometry components. Both Pratt & Whitney and General Electric are developing NGAP engines. Airbus, Air France reject blame over AF447 crash, 16 years on Air France 447 crashed in the Atlantic in 2009. In a 2023 trial, the judge found acts of negligence by Airbus and Air France, but determined that, under French criminal law, these acts were insufficient to establish a definitive link to the loss of the A330. Both Airbus and Air France were cleared of corporate manslaughter. In an appeals hearing, the two companies pleaded not guilty. Air France and Airbus chief executives recognized the suffering of the families, but denied any criminal responsibility for the crash. Appeal hearings are expected to run until late November 2025. Sikorsky to Build 99 CH-53K King Stallions for the U.S. Marine Corps Sikorsky announced the award of a $10.8 billion contract from the U.S. Navy to build up to 99 CH-53K King Stallion helicopters for the U.S. Marine Corps over the next five years.

Alle 27 EU-lidstaten hebben de verklaring van de Semicon Coalition ondertekend. Deze verklaring moet ervoor zorgen dat de Europese halfgeleider-industrie versterkt wordt - en leiden tot ruim 40 miljard aan nieuwe investeringen. Een turbulente dag op Schiphol. Air France en Delta willen de bagage van hun vliegtuigen niet langer laten afhandelen door KLM. Enkele uren later meldden de vakbonden dat de stakingen van het KLM grondpersoneel van aankomende woensdag niet doorgaan. En later op de dag werd bekend dat Schiphol de tariefstijging van 5 procent voor luchtvaartmaatschappijen toch niet gaat invoeren. De Raad voor Volksgezondheid & Samenleving (RVS) waarschuwt in een nieuw rapport voor de hypernerveuze samenleving. Wat is het? En wat moeten we ermee aan?

Op 1 iemand hoeft ABN Amro niet te rekenen. De Nederlandsche Bank gaat niet zomaar voor een overname van de bank liggen, zegt president Olaf Sleijpen. Hij is fan van één Europese kapitaalmarkt, en daarbij hoort ook dat elk overnamebod op waarde moet worden beoordeeld. Dus ziet hij het voorstel van het Belgische KBC vrolijk tegemoet. Als KBC nog twijfelde, is dit dan de bevestiging dat de weg voor een overname vrij is? Dat zoeken we deze aflevering uit. Verder hebben we het over de Europese autosector. Die krijgt bijval van een belangrijke politicus. De man aan de leiding van het grootste autoland van Europa is om. Friedrich Merz springt voor zijn autobouwers in de bres en wil af van de verplichte overstap naar elektrische motoren. Tegen 2035 wil de EU dat autobouwers geen enkele benzine- of dieselmotor meer maken. Maar autobouwers zien het als de strop, aangezien de concurrentie uit China moordend is. En met Merz aan hun zijde kan daar nog wel eens verandering in komen. Je hoort ook nog over een miljardenovername tussen twee Nederlandse bedrijven op Wall Street. Over de grootste uitkoop van een beursbedrijf met geleend geld ooit. Groter dan die van Twitter zelfs. En het gaat over het einde van een beursverhaal aan het Damrak. Een verhaal dat van korte duur was, want na één jaar zit het avontuur er alweer op.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Le portefeuille électronique européen Wero fête son premier anniversaire avec plus de 43 millions d'utilisateurs. Ludovic Francesconi, responsable du développement de Wero, revient sur le lancement, les ambitions et les particularités de ce nouveau service de paiement mobile pensé par les banques européennes.Pensé comme une alternative souveraine aux géants américains du paiement, Wero mise sur l'intégration directe dans les applications bancaires, un système de transfert d'argent instantané de compte à compte, et un fort soutien des institutions publiques. Une stratégie qui semble porter ses fruits, avec une adoption rapide notamment en France et en Allemagne.L'application, née de la transformation de Paylib, est déjà utilisée quotidiennement pour les paiements de particulier à particulier (P2P), via mobile, email ou QR code. Le service est intégré dans les principales applications bancaires (sauf à ce jour la Banque Postale), ce qui facilite grandement son accès pour les clients.Dès 2026, Wero vise l'extension de ses usages au commerce en ligne (e-commerce), avec des partenaires de poids comme Leclerc, Air France ou encore des administrations publiques. L'ambition est aussi d'arriver en point de vente physique, d'abord via QR code, puis via NFC.Si la souveraineté européenne est un enjeu important, Ludovic Francesconi insiste sur l'expérience utilisateur, la simplicité, la gratuité pour les consommateurs et un coût réduit pour les commerçants. L'objectif est de faire de Wero une solution moderne, fluide et compétitive.Aujourd'hui disponible en France, Allemagne et Belgique, Wero prévoit de s'étendre aux Pays-Bas et au Luxembourg en 2026, représentant ainsi 75 % des paiements de la zone euro. L'international n'est pas exclu à long terme, mais la priorité reste le marché européen.

How far away has your luggage been left behind never to be returned? Josh Bittker is a local Cambridge guy whose luggage despite containing an Apple AirTag with its exact location known, had his luggage left behind at the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris by Air France, never to be returned. Despite persistent communication by Bittker and assurance from the airline that they knew where his luggage was and that it would be returned, the airline turned around and dubbed the luggage a total loss and it ended up at a Parisian thrift store! Josh shared his story with us as we invited listeners to also share your lost luggage stories!

The second deportation under the government's ‘one in, one out' deal with France took place early this morning, as hundreds more migrants risked their lives trying to reach the UK. An Eritrean man, who arrived in the UK on a small boat last month, was on an Air France flight to Paris, which left London Heathrow at 6.15 am. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump suggested Sir Keir Starmer should use the military to tackle the small boats crisis.

How a Boeing 777 can go missing with no verifiable physical remains makes MH 370 the greatest aviation incident ever above all previous mysteries, including Air France 447 and the infamous Amelia Earhart case. The data for what happened to MH 370 is both abundant and unstable. What appears to match the known data, and the most logical assessment of other facts, is the following scenario: the Gulf of Thailand and South China Sea were the scene of a military exercise at the time of the flight's disappearance back in 2014 and 2 AWACS were monitoring the area. A pilot flying to Tokyo heard radio murmuring around the time of lost contact and the 370 co-pilot's phone made contact with a network 30min after the plane turned around and headed back towards Malaysia before turning again toward the Andaman Sea and Indian Ocean where, according to Inmarsat data, it flew south for several hours. The plane did not crash and one of the pilots apparently attempted to establish contact through alternative means, indicating the plane experienced no mechanical failures but lost communication as it was diverted. Many of the passenger's phones continued to ring after being called, something telecommunications companies had no comment on. One of the family members of the missing passengers claimed an intelligence operative approached him after going public and shared a tip that the U.S. government was fully aware of what happened. The FBI also sat on data for years before releasing it to the public or press. The satellite data for the plane's location came form Inmarsat, a UK company. Mysteriously, in the area of where the plane supposedly flew is a secretive joint US-UK military installation on Diego Garcia. Considering the presence of 20 employees from Freescale Semiconductor on board the plane flying to China, it is possible and probable that MH 370 was hijacked but likely via remote control and diverted to the military base in question, or another. What happened after could be similar to Project Northwoods. This scenario explains every piece of the puzzle. What surely did not happen was three orbs teleporting the plane, something con-artist online have sold like countless UFO scammer videos. Diego Garcia also, strangely, uses the phrase “Limuria is in our Charge,' a reference to the lost continent known as the sister of Atlantis. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Pro wrestling championships often have some sort of regional designation in their name to distinguish them, à la the United States Championship or the Intercontinental Championship. The WWE European Championship was one such title (though its list of champions wasn't exactly a map of the EU). On this episode, Andrew is joined by returning guest Paul Völsch (Emerald FlowShow) to play artists who are from Continental Europe. To clarify, there will be no UK or Ireland representation, but Scandinavia and Iceland are included. Artists featured include Röyksopp (Norway), Peter Fox (Germany), Air (France), Måneskin (Italy), Björk (Iceland), Sabaton (Sweden), DJ Sammy (Spain), and many more.

An Air France flight had to make an emergency landing due to a passenger's medical crisis, but she wasn't happy about it. The strategy of rock, paper, scissors.

You know the Kladstrups. Frankly, anyone interested in wine, whether through in the trade or as a consumer, should/must read their first book on wine: Wine and War. Since they have published 3 more books and just releasing the latest: Eugenie; The Last Empress of France. I was honored to get an advanced copy of the book and we had a chance to sit and laugh, recall history and talk wine. Petie and Don Kladstrup have a peculiar knack for stumbling upon history's best-kept secrets, usually while chasing a good glass of wine or a mysterious letter in a Paris archive. In this episode of Wine Talks, you'll follow the Kladstrups as they unearth the remarkable story of Empress Eugenie—the last French Empress, a force of nature whose life is hidden in the shadows of her more famous male counterparts. Forget what you thought you knew about French wine and revolution; you'll come away not only with a fresh perspective on the grand cru vineyards of Bordeaux and the Champagne houses' enterprising widows, but with intimate knowledge of how Eugenie's untold story entwines itself with the very essence of France. Through the Kladstrups' lively banter, listeners will travel from the opulent halls of the Second Empire to the chaotic streets of Paris under siege, learn why an empress was once dismissed as a mere ornament, and discover how she transformed French education, fashion, architecture, and even agriculture—never mind her influential eye for haute couture and her trailblazing push for women's rights. History leaps off the page as Don and Petie describe the research adventures that led from wine cellars in exile to dusty university archives, weaving Eugenie's Spanish roots, shrewd business mind, and political resiliency into the culture of modern France. Experience the story of how personal ambition, societal prejudice, and the subtle power of a forgotten woman unravel through lost letters, chance encounters, and a passion for all things French—especially when there's a bottle uncorked at the finish line. This is not just history; it's the tale of how one extraordinary woman shaped a nation, told by those who know how to find magic in both a glass and a story.   Cakebread Cellars (referred to as the "Cake Bread family" in the transcript) Website: https://www.cakebread.com Veuve Clicquot (referred to as "V.

Bruno Guglielminetti et Jérôme Colombain reviennent sur la présentation de GPT-5 par OpenAI, saluée pour ses capacités « niveau doctorat », moins d'hallucinations et un usage plus simple, avec cinq personnalités vocales proposées. Ils évoquent deux polémiques politiques : un député britannique ayant délégué ses réponses à un robot conversationnel, et le Premier ministre suédois utilisant l'IA pour obtenir un « second avis ». Leur discussion se poursuit sur une série de cyberattaques en France, dont Bouygues Télécom et Air France, pointant la vulnérabilité des sous-traitants et l'urgence de renforcer leur sécurité.

Columbia University, Google, Salesforce, Air France, Pandora, Cisco, Chanel and so much more insanity are all part of this week's segment..

OpenAI frappe fort en plein été : deux ans après GPT-4, voici GPT-5, plus rapide, plus puissant, moins sujet aux « hallucinations » et taillé pour la programmation, la recherche scientifique et même l'assistance médicale. Un « doctorant dans la poche »Avec Bruno Guglielminetti, nous revenons sur l'annonce de GPT-5 et sur ses promesses : expertise de niveau doctorat, exécution de tâches complexes, personnalités multiples (cynique, robot, nerd…), mode vocal généralisé. Un modèle pensé autant pour les développeurs que pour le grand public. Sam Altman, le PDG d'OpenAI promet aussi un mode vocal accessible à tous et des personnalités d'IA personnalisables. IA et politique : mariage impossible ? L'IA ne s'arrête pas aux labos : en politique, elle fait déjà débat. Un député britannique et le Premier ministre suédois sont critiqués pour avoir confié certaines interactions (et réflexions) à des IA conversationnelles. Faut-il s'en réjouir ou s'en inquiéter ? Des électeurs protestent. Pourtant, n'est-ce pas la preuve de l'adoption d'une technologie incontournable par nos dirigeants ? Piratages en sériePendant ce temps, la cybercriminalité ne prend pas de vacances : Bouygues Télécom et Air France ont vu les données de millions de clients fuiter via des prestataires peu sécurisés. Une situation qui pose la question du niveau de protection exigé des sous-traitants des grands groupes.Retour de la série "Tout comprendre"Dans cet épisode, retrouvez également un extrait de la série spéciale été Tout Comprendre, consacré aux coulisses techniques de l'intelligence artificielle générative : fonctionnement des modèles de langage, biais, multimodalité… Un avant-goût des rediffusions complètes dès la semaine prochaine.-----------

En plein pic estival, les compagnies aériennes déploient des stratégies inédites pour séduire les voyageurs. Entre montée des préoccupations environnementales et rude concurrence, elles misent sur la diversification de leur offre, l'expérience passager et l'optimisation des revenus. Tour d'horizon. Il fut un temps où voler signifiait choisir entre trois classes: économique, affaire ou première. Désormais, une quatrième option s'impose dans le ciel. La classe « premium economy », un compromis confortable entre l'économie classique et les classes supérieures. Proposée aujourd'hui aussi bien par les compagnies traditionnelles qu'à présent par certaines low-cost, cette classe intermédiaire promet plus d'espace, un embarquement prioritaire et un service amélioré. Pour les compagnies, c'est surtout un surcoût relativement faible. L'objectif est simple, maximiser les revenus en augmentant le prix du billet sans exploser les coûts. Chez Delta, par exemple, cette option offre des rendements supérieurs à ceux de la classe économique standard. À lire aussiLes turbulences du secteur aérien à l'heure de la présidence de Donald Trump Les compagnies deviennent aussi des agences de voyages Autre virage stratégique, la transformation en véritables tour-opérateurs. EasyJet en est l'exemple le plus abouti avec sa plateforme EasyJet Holidays. Lancée en 2019 et arrivée en France fin 2023, cette offre 100% en ligne propose vols, hébergements et restauration – le tout sans passer par une agence physique. Résultat: un succès économique. EasyJet Holidays a représenté un tiers du bénéfice avant impôt du groupe l'an passé. Une stratégie qui inspire désormais d'autres compagnies comme Air France, Transavia, Eurowings ou Ryanair, toutes prêtes à capter une part du marché touristique global. Le « stopover », ou comment transformer une escale en escapade Et si l'on profitait de son escale pour découvrir une nouvelle ville? C'est l'idée derrière le concept de « stopover », désormais mis en avant par des compagnies telles qu'Emirates, Finnair ou Japan Airlines. Finie l'attente interminable en zone de transit, les passagers se voient offrir des nuits d'hôtel, des transferts et des repas pour explorer la ville d'escale. Une offre « gratuite » intégrée dans le prix du billet, qui profite à tout le monde : le passager vit une expérience enrichie, la compagnie valorise son hub, et le tourisme local en sort gagnant. En diversifiant leurs offres et en repensant l'expérience voyage, les compagnies aériennes parviennent à booster leurs revenus dans un contexte toujours plus concurrentiel. Une manière aussi de reconstruire leur rentabilité après les années noires du Covid-19. À lire aussiGuerre Israël-Iran: les compagnies aériennes face à une envolée des coûts

The 1956 Grand Canyon Air crash, the 1977 Tenerife Air Disaster and the 2005 Air France 744 crash were air disasters that had a lasting impact on avaiation safety. 

We train mechanics to attack airplanes with tools, but A&P/IA Colleen Sterling says there's a better way. She shares her advice for using modern tools like engine monitors and borescopes to maintain airplanes on condition instead of by the calendar. She also talks about her fascinating day job, which involves searching for lost airplanes—including her role in finding the Air France 447 wreckage. In the Ready to Copy segment, Colleen explains why compression checks are overrated, how to be a better air racer, and what it's like to fly aerobatics in a biplane.SHOW LINKS:- Savvy borescope initiative: https://www.savvyaviation.com/borescope-initiative/- Air France 447 search: https://www.metsci.com/what-we-do/featured-projects/the-search-for-air-france-447/- PilotWorkshops Mastery: https://pilotworkshop.com/products/vfr-mastery/- Buy a borescope: https://www.sportys.com/rigid-one-way-articulating-borescope.html
