If you've ever flown in a plane, you've probably wondered if being a flight attendant is a good job. It seems kind of glamorous. You get to fly all over the globe, see many places, and meet a lot of interesting people. But there's also a dark side. They face unpredictable schedules, extended time away from loved ones, and disruptions to Circadian rhythm. All these factors can make it hard to manage mental health despite one's best efforts. On today's episode, Tony Wechsler and Ally Murphy go from friendly skies to radiant vibes. Ally, went from being a flight attendant to become a voice actor, podcast host, and influencer.

What happens when your frontline employees are tired of apologizing on behalf of the company? When public perception isn't in your favor? This was the reality Oscar Munoz faced when he took the role of CEO and chairman of United Airlines in 2015. So he went back to basics, embarking on an extensive listening tour with thousands of employees — and in time, things turned for the better. We sat down with Oscar to learn about that journey, what's changed since and the value of deploying this strategy. Oscar will lead a spotlight session at IABC World Conference 2024, “Leadership Is an Act of Extended Storytelling.” The format will be part fireside chat and part town hall, to which Oscar says in this episode: “Bring it!” Bring your best questions, ask him about failure and get ready for a refreshing way to kick off your time at World Conference. Tune in to this inspiring conversation and make plans to see Oscar this June in Chicago. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Oscar Munoz is the former CEO and chairman of United Airlines (UAL) and serves on the board of directors of Salesforce, CBRE, TelevisaUnivision, and Archer Aviation, a leading Urban Air Mobility company and developer of all-electric vertical take-off and landing (“eVTOL”) aircraft. He serves on the Pentagon's Defense Business Board, is a trustee of the University of Southern California and the Brookings Institution, as well as an independent trustee for Fidelity. He is the author of the Wall Street Journal best-selling memoir, “Turnaround Time: Uniting an Airline and its Employees in the Friendly Skies,” published by Harper Business in May 2023. He is co-chair of the 2023 Blue Ribbon Commission for the National Association of Corporate Directors, the authority on best boardroom practices. Since 2022, the Oscar and Cathy Munoz Pave it Forward Foundation has proudly partnered with the American Heart Association (AHA) to create the AHA's Social Impact Fund, providing financial grants and low interest loans for evidence-based, community-driven work to address heart health inequality. Under his leadership, United Airlines demonstrated rapid improvement, delivering industry-leading operational reliability, and sustained financial success, with stock value increasing 54 percent during that period. Munoz formally retired as UAL's executive chairman in May 2021. Previously, Munoz served as president and chief operating officer of the North American rail-based transportation supplier CSX Corp. A decade of excellent financial performance, including a boost in operating income of nearly 600 percent, earned CSX recognition on the list of Most Honored Companies by Institutional Investor magazine. He has served in various financial leadership positions across diverse industries, including U.S. West, AT&T, Coca-Cola, and PepsiCo. He earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business and an MBA from Pepperdine's Graziadio Business School. Hispanic Business magazine twice named Munoz one of its 100 Most Influential Hispanics, honoring his journey as an immigrant who, to this date, remains the only person of Hispanic heritage to run a U.S. airline. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ LINKS Mentioned in This Episode "Leadership Is an Act of Extended Storytelling”: A Fireside Chat and Town Hall With Oscar Munoz IABC World Conference 2024 “Turnaround Time: Uniting an Airline and its Employees in the Friendly Skies,” by Oscar Munoz Connect With IABC on social media https://twitter.com/iabc https://www.linkedin.com/company/iabc/ https://www.facebook.com/IABCWorld https://www.youtube.com/user/IABClive https://www.instagram.com/iabcgram/ Visit IABC Online https://www.iabc.com/ https://catalyst.iabc.com/ https://wc.iabc.com/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/iabc/message

You are in for a special treat today! Be sure to fasten your seatbelts and get ready to “fly the friendly skies”, as I welcome my special guest; recently retired United Airlines captain Dave Atala. Dave's career did not begin with becoming a pilot in mind, but he discovered his true calling after a stint in the Navy as a Naval Aviator, flying P3 aircraft, searching for Russian submarines! He then continued his love of flying airplanes, as he transitioned into commercial aviation and “landed” at United Airlines, where he spend over 32 years in the cockpit! We will talk about the many changes he has seen in the industry over his career, the impact technology has had in his field, how 911 changed everything, and even what the future looks like for the industry. One burning question he answers is what are the pilots doing up there while the plane is flying on autopilot? He'll tell us about a few anxious moments he's had, but and this is reassuring, he never had a time in all those years that he feared for the safety of his passengers and crew. Dave is going to answer a lot of questions that you, like myself, probably have about the job, the career and what do you do when the calendar tells you that it's time to stop flying commercial aircraft? And, of course, he will share with us how he discovered and was ultimately “lured” to the lake. You're going to love hearing about all of this and more, as I welcome Captain Dave to the show!

Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career
Sully Sullenberger: "I'm very glad that the Federal Aviation Administration has ensured the safety of the traveling public by wisely denying the waiver request by Republic Airways to cut in half the pilot experience requirement. U.S. airlines have attained an extraordinarily good safety record, with no fatal crashes in more than 13 and a half years." Sorry, Sully, not true. An Atlas Air B767 flying for Amazon crashed on Feb 23, 2019, killing the three crew members. The first officer, who caused the crash, had 5073 flying hours. He had falsified his flying history and lied about failing seven check rides. The 2009 Colgan Air crash that was the impetus for the 1500 hour rule was caused by a captain with a history of three proficiency check failures at Colgan. In July 2017 Air Canada Flight 759 had two pilots with more than 1500 hours each. They missed crashing into several aircraft on a taxiway, clearing the closest plane by 14 feet. If they had crashed, the death toll would have eclipsed the Teneriffe crash. The crash was averted by a United Airlines pilot telling them they were lined up on a taxiway. In December, B777 UA1722 took off from the Kahului Airport at 14:49 local time, where it was met with stormy conditions. Looking at data provided by FlightRadar24.com, the aircraft reached 2,200 ft approximately a minute after departing. However, it quickly began descending just north of the island's Baldwin Beach Park. At 14:50, the calibrated altitude of the aircraft was just around 775 ft as the aircraft dropped over the waters along the coast of Maui. From CNN Business: Five recent near-collisions on US runways, including one more this week in Boston, have prompted federal safety investigators to open multiple inquiries and a sweeping review. Boston Air traffic controllers stopped JetBlue flight from running into a departing private jet as it was coming in to land on the evening of February 27 night in Boston. The FAA is investigating the incident. The two planes involved in the apparent close call at Boston Logan International Airport came within 565 feet (172 meters) of colliding, according to Flightradar24's preliminary review of its data. According to a preliminary review, the pilot of a Learjet 60 took off without clearance while JetBlue Flight 206 was preparing to land on an intersecting runway," the FAA said in a statement. "JetBlue 206, go around," said the controller in Boston Logan's tower, according to recordings archived by LiveATC.net. The FAA says its air traffic controller told the crew of the Learjet to "line up and wait" on Runway 9 as the JetBlue Embraer 190 approached the intersecting Runway 4 Right. "The Learjet pilot read back the instructions clearly but began a takeoff roll instead," the FAA said in a statement. "The pilot of the JetBlue aircraft took evasive action and initiated a climb-out as the Learjet crossed the intersection." Burbank Last week, the National Transportation Safety Board said that a crew of a landing Mesa Airlines CRJ900 "executed a pilot-initiated go-around" as a SkyWest Embraer E175 was taking off from the same runway. A go-around is a routine measure to abort a landing on the approach. The NTSB says neither airplane was damaged and nobody on board was hurt. LiveATC.net recordings from the time of the incident chronicle confusion over whether the SkyWest flight was off the runway at Bob Hope Burbank Airport in California. It's unclear how close the two planes came to a collision. "Is he off the runway yet?" asked one unidentified voice. "We're going around," responded the crew of the Mesa flight. "The Mesa pilot discontinued the landing and initiated a climb out," said a FAA statement, which is also investigating the incident. "Meanwhile, the SkyWest aircraft continued with its departure, which prompted an automated alert to sound on the flight deck of the Mesa aircraft," the FAA said. The controller instructed the Mesa crew to turn to a course that took it away from the other aircraft." Austin A Southwest passenger jet and a FedEx cargo plane came as close as 100 feet from colliding on February 5 at the main airport in Texas' capital, and it was a pilot -- not air traffic controllers -- who averted disaster, a top federal investigator says. Controllers at Austin's airport had cleared the arriving FedEx Boeing 767 and a departing Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 jet to use the same runway, and the FedEx crew "realized that they were overflying the Southwest plane," Jennifer Homendy, chairwoman of the National Transportation Safety Board, told CNN. The FedEx pilot told the Southwest crew to abort taking off, she said. The FedEx plane, meanwhile, climbed as its crew aborted their landing to help avoid a collision, the FAA said. Honolulu On January 23, there was an incident at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport involving a United Airlines 777 jet and a smaller, single-engine cargo plane at the Hawaii airport. The United jet improperly crossed a runway, while the cargo aircraft was landing, the FAA said. At the closest point, the aircraft were separated by 1,170 feet. The cargo aircraft involved in the incident is a smaller Cessna 206 turboprop operated by Kamaka Air, which ferries goods between the Hawaiian islands. The airline did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The NTSB announced the investigation the day after Billy Nolen, the acting FAA administrator, directed his agency in a memo to "mine the data to see whether there are other incidents that resemble ones we have seen in recent weeks." New York - JFK On January 13, a close call between an American Airlines and Delta Air Lines flights sparked alarm. The crew of a Delta Boeing 737 aborted its takeoff, ultimately stopping within 1,000 feet of the taxiing AA's Boeing 777, the FAA said. No one was hurt in the incident, which took place around on a Friday evening. Air traffic controllers had "noticed another aircraft crossing the runway in front of the departing jetliner," the FAA said in a statement. "According to a preliminary analysis, Delta Air Lines Flight 1943 stopped its takeoff roll approximately 1,000 feet before reaching the point where American Airlines Flight 106, a Boeing 777, had crossed from an adjacent taxiway." According to Delta, its flight -- a 737-900 bound for Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic -- had 145 customers and six crew members on board. Audio recordings detail swift action by an air traffic controller kept the airplanes from colliding as they drew closer. "S--t!" exclaimed the controller from the tower of John F. Kennedy International Airport on Friday night. "Delta 1943 cancel takeoff clearance!" All of these crashed were averted by - predominantly - devine intervention. Sully's successful outcome was clearly the result of devine intervention that had the Hudson River devoid of the normal plethora of ferries and boats. The aircraft did not suddenly sink even though the Ditching Switch was not used. Here is another opinion about the 1500 hour rule.

How do abortion access, FAA enforcement of airline refunds, airplane crashes, pilot arrest and detainment, and the history of the airline industry and international airline standards all tie together? Find out in episode 11 of Show Cause as we're joined by International Law and Aviation Law expert, our very own Professor Ronnie Gipson. As the travel season ramps up again, everyone can relate to the stress and hassle associated with flying and the airline industry, but there are a lot more things happening in the world of air travel, the aviation legal arena, and international law than you might think. Join us as we examine issues related to the FAA crackdown on airlines to issue passenger refunds for canceled flights, the history of the airline industry and international sets of standards brought to the forefront due to a recent airline crash in Latin America, and the unique way private pilots and a small non-profit have teamed up to help patients access abortion related healthcare services in states that have enacted bans after the reversal of Roe v. Wade.
A lack of transparency has always existed among airlines. It certainly is helpful to know which airline has a history of losing baggage or what the average delay for an airline is. That is why Dwight Harris, Jr. founded DataScalp and serves as its CEO - to get feedback from travelers on their experiences, amass that information and obtain inferential data about the various airline companies. After receiving the consumer feedback, DataScalp ranks the airlines in a performance dashboard, giving frequent fliers insight so they can have an overall better experience flying the friendly skies. Dwight discusses why he made this transparency his mission and how DataScalp provides an essential voice for consumers.
