What happens when something catches fire inside an aircraft's cargo compartment?And how do you know that the equipment designed to contain that fire will actually work?In Episode 87 of the Flying Midwest Podcast, Jim continues his conversation with Tom Brodowski, this time exploring his work with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the complex world of air cargo safety.We take a deep dive into the testing, standards, and technology used to make air cargo safer—including live-fire testing of cargo containers and equipment. These tests aren't theoretical. Products are put through real-world conditions designed to determine how they perform when exposed to fire and other hazards.Tom explains what goes into developing and testing these systems, what the aviation industry is looking for during a live burn test, and how the results can influence the equipment and procedures used throughout the global air cargo system.And while most passengers never see the cargo operation happening below them, the work being done behind the scenes has a direct connection to aviation safety and the safety of the traveling public.We'll also discuss Tom's work with IATA, the role of industry standards and collaboration, and the people working around the world to make sure air cargo can move safely through the aviation system.If you haven't heard Episode 86 yet, start there for the first part of our conversation with Tom, where we explore the massive operation required to move baggage and cargo around the world every day.▶️ Listen to Episode 86: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5o4gCKTmcUvbZKWEGif5v6?si=QNrE5OQURzWMfZVUHqRrvQFrom the baggage we check at the ticket counter to the cargo loaded deep inside an aircraft, there's an enormous system working behind the scenes to keep aviation moving—and keep it safe.This is AeroExploration.

DESCRIPTION The engines roar, the nose lifts, and the runway falls away beneath you. The safest thing a pilot can do is the one thing passengers hate: not land. Here is the rule behind it, the night I broke it, and what the recorders show from the Miami 767 crash. This is A Pilot Explains: one story, twenty minutes, told from the flight deck. Every airline flies to the same rule: by 1,000 feet the aircraft is set up for landing or you go around, and nobody gets in trouble for it. In 2003, as a brand-new DC-9 first officer, Bryan flew into a dust storm at Bamako, ignored the captain's calls, and landed anyway because there were beers planned at 7:00. The aircraft forgave him. Then, number by number, the NTSB's recorder summary from the Boeing 767 freighter that ran off the end of Runway 30 at Miami on 6 September 2026 and killed five people on the ground. The investigation is open, and nothing here is based on any official finding. IN THIS EPISODE What a go-around feels like from the cabin, and why it is planned before every landing The stabilized approach: the five things that must be right at 1,000 feet Bamako, 2003: the dust storm, the captain's calls, and the approach Bryan should have abandoned Why getting away with it teaches you exactly the wrong lesson How fast a runway runs out: 10% too fast costs 20% more runway, a 10-knot tailwind costs 21% Miami, 6 September 2026: the wind, the runway, and the NTSB recorder timeline second by second Why 97 out of 100 unstable approaches still land, and the one sentence in the FAA report that explains it Plan continuation bias, and the two lines every pilot has to watch across a career Two pilots, one rule: why the decision is taken out of your hands at the exact moment you cannot make it Airline safety in 2025, South Africa's roads, and why Africa has the world's highest runway excursion count Rules written in blood, and the promise the 1,000-foot rule makes to you The NTSB preliminary report is due in October, and Bryan will take you through it I'm Bryan Roseveare. I was an airline captain. I still go to work on the flight deck. It's just a full flight simulator now, and the pilots I train are the ones who fly you around.

IATA quiere abrir a la competencia el multimillonario mercado de los repuestos de motores de avión. La asociación, que representa a unas 300 aerolíneas, reclama que los grandes fabricantes faciliten que empresas independientes puedan recuperar, reacondicionar y vender piezas usadas certificadas, después de que la Comisión Europea haya logrado un acuerdo similar con Pratt & Whitney Canada para los motores turbohélice. El objetivo es reducir costes y aliviar una escasez de piezas y capacidad de mantenimiento que, según IATA, costó a las aerolíneas cerca de 6.000 millones de dólares el año pasado.Los mayores de 65 años podrían convertirse en uno de los grandes motores para desestacionalizar el turismo español, según un análisis de CaixaBank Research realizado a partir de datos agregados y anonimizados de pagos. Este grupo realiza en España el 87% de su gasto turístico y concentra solo el 22,1% en sus dos meses de mayor actividad, frente al 24,6% del resto de viajeros. Las agencias de viajes tienen además casi el doble de peso en sus compras —6,5% frente al 3,3%— y en provincias como Soria, Zaragoza o Teruel generan más del 20% del gasto turístico total.El primer fin de semana de la residencia de Shakira en Madrid está provocando un fuerte incremento de la demanda ferroviaria hacia la capital. Las reservas registradas por Trainline para viajar entre el 18 y el 20 de septiembre son un 38% superiores a las del fin de semana anterior y en la ruta Barcelona-Madrid el crecimiento alcanza el 110%. La mitad de las reservas corresponde además a grupos de dos o más pasajeros, mientras el viajero está organizando estos desplazamientos con una antelación media cercana a dos meses, otro ejemplo del peso creciente de los grandes eventos culturales como motivo de viaje.Los eventos del Orgullo celebrados este año en Ámsterdam, Madrid, Londres y Colonia generaron 403 millones de euros de gasto turístico incremental, según un estudio de The Data Appeal Company y Queer Destinations. Las cuatro ciudades reunieron a más de seis millones de asistentes y concentraron el 92% del impacto analizado en Países Bajos, España, Reino Unido y Alemania. En Madrid, donde MADO congregó a más de dos millones de personas, la restauración absorbió el 61% del gasto adicional, frente al 20% destinado al alojamiento y el 19% al transporte.
This week Nicola and Di chat with entrepreneur and visionary, Mennan Yelkenci. Mennan was awarded the 2024 Young Entrepreneur of the Year and is the founder of Booked.ai, the world's first IATA-accredited AI travel agent. Mennan swapped a career in corporate ASX roles for the world of startups, and we loved hearing his story and the exciting projects he’s working on. In this episode, we chat to Mennan about the path that led him here. From consulting on renewable energy projects (and helping international developers communicate with Aussie farmers), to building Apify to solve his own frustrations with outsourced tech development, and finally launching Booked.ai, an IATA-accredited AI travel agent, to help plan and book your next trip. Mennan is an amazing example of someone who spots a problem and builds the solution. We get into exactly how Booked.ai works, the built-in duty-of-care safeguards that check destination safety before you fly, right through to the reassurance that real human travel agents are still there on the back end when something needs a personal touch. Mennan is clear that Booked.ai isn't here to replace human travel agents, but to offer an alternative for the times you just want it sorted, fast and to disrupt the online booking space. We also talk about our love of travel, Mennan’s Turkish heritage and his incredible tips for a Turkey itinerary (Istanbul, Alaçatı, Bodrum and Cappadocia are all must-dos), and what makes him tick as a new dad and a serial entrepreneur. We had such a great time with Mennan. His energy, ambition and vision for the future of travel are infectious. We hope you love this episode as much as we did!

Jennifer and Robin torch the idea that every agency needs its own homemade curriculum, pointing out that IATA rules and DMC basics don't change agency to agency no matter how "unique" you think your brand is. They call out the ego and scarcity mindset behind DIY training, explain why refusing to invest $500 in proper onboarding may be a sign you're not ready to hire, and reveal the hidden cost of maintaining your own curriculum. If you want to scale, retain great advisors, and escape the hiring hamster-wheel, it's time to invest in education that already works.Resources Mentioned In This Episode:Tique's Course Suite Buying for an Agency or Team?

Africa has 18% of the world's population and only 2% of its air traffic. RwandAir CEO Yvonne Makolo says the continent did that to itself.I speak to Yvonne about her nine years running Rwanda's national carrier — an airline that still isn't profitable, in a country of 15 million people with almost no outbound travel market, at a time when most African flag carriers have collapsed.She explains why Rwanda decided to build an airline anyway, how Kigali became a transit hub where more than half of passengers are just passing through, and that the long-delayed Qatar deal is still going through. She's blunt about what's holding African aviation back: taxes, fees, closed skies, restrictive visas, and a mindset that treats flying as a luxury for the rich.On being one of very few women running an airline, she has a sharp answer to the question she says she's always asked.And after nine years in the job, I ask her whether she'll still be doing it in ten.Yvonne says the question she's always asked — "what will you do to bring more women into aviation?" — is aimed at the wrong person. What did you make of her answer?Yvonne explains how Rwanda has used aviation as a strategic pillar for growth, why Kigali has become a growing transit hub, and how the airline's ambitions tie into the country's broader economy. She also reflects on the challenges facing African aviation, from high fees and restrictive visas to infrastructure gaps and geopolitical tensions.TagsRwandAir, Yvonne Makolo, African aviation, Kigali, Bugesera airport, Qatar Airways, Qatar Investment Authority, Ethiopian Airlines, open skies, Yamoussoukro Decision, IATA, AfCFTA, Rwanda, women in aviation, airline CEO, Africa Here and Now, Martine DennisThis is part of Africa Here & Now's special series on aviation including conversations with: Mesfin Tasew of Ethiopian Airlines, Kamil Al Alawadhi of IATA, Allen Onyema of Air Peace, Henok Teferra Shawl of Boeing Africa, Adefunke Adeyemi of AFCAC, and Nigeria's aviation minister Festus Keyamo.Key moments00:00 — Why Yvonne hopes the next generation takes over00:28 — Aviation and Africa's unrealized potentialMartine introduces the special aviation series and frames the broader question of why African aviation still underperforms.00:51 — From technology to aviationYvonne shares her unusual career path from geography and environmental science into IT, telecoms, and aviation.02:33 — Entering a male-dominated industryShe describes the shock of walking into a room full of “grey suits” at her first IATA AGM.04:01 — The question women are always askedYvonne explains why conversations about bringing more women into aviation should involve men too.05:53 — Why Rwanda invested in a national airlineShe outlines the government's deliberate decision to use aviation as a foundation for national development.06:22 — How the airline supports Rwanda's economyTourism, exports, conferences, and sports tourism all benefit from the airline's growth.08:20 — Measuring the value of a loss-making airlineYvonne discusses how the airline's wider contribution to the economy matters as much as profitability.10:09 — Kigali as a hubMore than half of passengers are transit travelers, showing how Kigali is becoming a regional connection point.11:07 — Growth plans and new destinationsRwandAir is already competing internationally and plans to expand to more long-haul destinations.12:28 — Qatar Airways partnership13:23 — The new airport and future hub ambitions16:19 — Building aviation capacity in-house18:37 — Investing in aviation skills19:35 — Why African aviation is still underperforming22:23 — Why progress is too slowRwanda's example shows what's possible when the right policies are in place, but regional reform remains slow.23:16 — Fuel costs and geopolitical pressure24:36 — Navigating geopolitics25:34 — Looking aheadYvonne reflects on her future in the role and says it may be time for the younger generation to take over.

When did flying stop being the most glamorous thing a person could possibly do?What kind of industry fixes its own prices by law, and then competes on how much champagne it can pour?And what happened to the man who broke it?Sir Freddie Laker swept floors at an aircraft factory, worked out that the entire airline business was upside down, and got taken apart for it — Peter Frankopan and Afua Hirsch on the man whose bankruptcy made your budget flight possible.For most of the twentieth century the airlines ran a legal cartel. IATA fixed the fares, so a London to New York ticket cost the same on Pan Am, TWA or BA, and the only thing left to compete on was luxury: forty inches of legroom, professional chefs, sterling silver, a side of beef carved in the aisle. It was magnificent, and roughly eighty-five per cent of people never got on a plane. Then Laker put a transatlantic seat on sale for fifty-nine pounds and let people queue on the pavement outside Victoria for it. The industry drove him under inside five years, then adopted everything he had done. What is left is a world where five billion people fly each year, three per cent of them internationally, and the seat in front of you gets a little closer every season.Join Legacy Plus for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fm[0:00] Peter hates airports, Afua loves them, and the words "you're a Terminal Five girl"[5:19] The legal cartel — how IATA fixed every fare and left nothing to compete on but champagne[6:39] Forty inches of legroom, a chef, and a side of beef carved at your seat[8:13] Nail polish, posture, and the finishing-school standards applied to an air hostess[11:36] Freddie Laker, the Canterbury boy who swept factory floors and broke the cartel[13:23] Fifty-nine pounds to New York, and people sleeping on the pavement outside Victoria[21:57] Four per cent of climate change, and the cities buckling under weekend visitors[30:57] Why business class keeps improving while your seat keeps getting thinnerStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas:Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.comJoin Legacy+ for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fmStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas: Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

Marie Owens Thomsen, Chief Economist and SVP Sustainability at the International Air Transport Association (IATA), has emerged as one of the most outspoken voices in the aviation decarbonization debate. Is the European Emissions Trading System (ETS) fit for purpose? Are the EU's current sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) mandates fit for purpose? Are airlines carrying a fair share of the decarbonization cost burden? These are some of the questions Marie addresses regularly at industry conferences, and that we discuss in depth in today's episode. As a preview: while agreeing with the Net Zero 2050 goal, Marie - and IATA for that matter - believes the current regulatory framework in Europe is badly designed and fails to account for the dynamics of both the aviation and energy industries. True, IATA is not an impartial actor in this discussion, as it obviously represents the interests of its member airlines. But as the main target of these regulations, airlines are certainly entitled to have their voice heard, if only because, with an average profit margin that has never exceeded the low single digits, any poorly designed regulation can seriously damage an industry that is, after all, one of the pillars of global economic growth and an and an enabler of trade, tourism, human connection, and all sort of other opportunities.IATA has made its case with figures and studies, yet it's often Marie's sharp commentary that often drives IATA's point home. It is illustrative that this conversation was, in fact, originally planned to last around 45 minutes, but the topic has so many consequential angles that we ended up talking for considerably longer, discussing what could realistically be done to ensure the airline industry meets its environmental commitments without putting its future in jeopardy. So tune in for a fascinating conversation about sustainability, environmental regulation and what these mean for airlines with IATA's Chief Economist, Marie Owens Thomsen!
Seaplane regulations, a fatal speedboat accident and new cyberscam centre revelations. This week's show takes Gary and Hannah around ASEAN and beyond, with stopovers in Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Timor Leste and the Middle East. We begin with the latest updates on flights connecting South East Asia and the Middle East as the military conflict between the US and Iran flares up once again. We look at the latest developments in IATA's battle to promote sustainable aviation fuel while at the same time challenging government policies. A deadly speedboat accident near Phu Quoc raises once more the issue of marine safety in tourism, while Vietnam steps up attempts to attract more Muslim tourists. New revelations about scam centres in Timor Leste and Cambodia raise more questions than answers, and we finish in Thailand where an island network of seaplanes is ready for take-off, or is it?

EPISODE SNAPSHOT Welcome to The Bryan Air Podcast. Career intelligence for pilots. We break down executive moves, economic forces, and the technology reshaping how pilots are trained, assessed, and employed. Boardroom decisions land on your flight deck. We translate them first. No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. From 1 July, every traveler in and out of South Africa must file an online SARS declaration inside a 24-hour window before departure. Children included, and multi-stop itineraries make the timing even messier. With visas already strangling inbound business travel, Bryan asks the question nobody in government seems to be asking: why add another barrier at the border? Then IATA's May numbers show the world flying less for a second straight month while African carriers grow fastest with the emptiest cabins, and Emirates launches a geo-targeted recruitment drive aimed squarely at South African pilots. Necessary admin or self-inflicted damage? You decide. In this solo episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare breaks down South Africa's new SARS travel declaration, IATA's May air traffic results, and aviation careers opening up at Emirates, Riyadh Air, and Air Europa.

"The world has changed around Thailand since Covid, whereas Vietnam appears more in control of its destiny." As we race toward the midpoint of 2026, it was another week with plenty of travel talking points in ASEAN and beyond. The week, Gary and Hannah visit Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos and China to decipher the top takeaways. We begin in the Philippines with the latest reports from the devastating earthquake in Mindanao, and send our very best wishes to people across the nation for Philippine Independence Day. Next up is IATA's State of the Global Air Transport Industry report, with some scything parting words from Director General, Willie Walsh, regarding policies around sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which he says have put progress "under pressure." We then deconstruct the merits and debits of a detailed article comparing the tourism policy trajectories of Thailand and Vietnam - written from a Thai travel industry perspective (TLDR: Pinch. Of. Salt.) Plus. we look at how Malaysia has enticed a Chinese cruise operator to establish a regional home port on the west coast, address the reasons why Vietnamese airlines are attempting to expedite orders of Boeing planes - and we delve into our media headline of the week: "Five days, unlimited durian, zero apologies."
John Maytham speaks to Lindsey Schutters, journalist with Daily Maverick, about the airline industry's campaign to reduce aviation taxes and charges. Using insights gathered at an IATA briefing, they discuss the debate over passenger taxes, airline profitability, consumer rights and the role air connectivity plays in supporting economic growth, tourism and trade. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.

Israël en Iran bestoken elkaar met raketten, waardoor het fragiele staakt-het-vuren dat sinds 8 april geldt feitelijk is ingestort. In Teheran, Tabriz en Isfahan zijn explosies gehoord na Israëlische aanvallen op militaire doelen, terwijl Iran eerder een raket op Noord-Israël afvuurde als vergelding voor Israëlische aanvallen op Zuid-Beiroet. Midden-Oosten-correspondent Tara Kenkhuis schetst hoe ook Jemen, Saoedi-Arabië en de pogingen van Pakistan en Donald Trump om te de-escaleren in het conflict worden meegesleurd.

01 Jun 2026. Huge changes in Dubai from today, including petrol prices rising around 8% while diesel drops by over 7%. Global oil prices are falling, so why are UAE fuel prices going up again in June? We find out with Kpler. Plus, air passenger demand in the Middle East almost halved in April due to the conflict. We discuss the global impact and the search for green shoots of recovery with Kashif Khalid from IATA. And hoteliers across the UAE are celebrating a surge in staycations over Eid.

The latest bouts of extreme geopolitical turbulence in the last year to 18 months have triggered a variety of short-term and longer-term responses to keep supply chains moving to, from, through, or around different parts of the world. This issue of the magazine examines some of these shifts in patterns and processes through the experiences of air cargo stakeholders, from various perspectives. For example, Washington's trade war, modal shift, and supply chain restructuring are among the factors affecting pharma air logistics supply chains, as manufacturers seek to minimise risks and costs, and improve quality and resilience, as discussed in the Pharma report (page 4). Meanwhile, new packaging innovations and cost pressures have encouraged a move from active containers towards passive solutions. The Middle East report (page 16) explores how the sector has adapted to this year's extraordinary challenges and fast-changing developments, within a high-risk, highly volatile environment. Among the many reflections, these developments have underscored the region's importance within interconnected global supply chains, and the ability of air cargo stakeholders to keep cargo moving despite extreme disruptions. The situation in the Middle East has also added to various already fast-evolving dynamics in Africa's air cargo markets (page 10), as geopolitical shifts push more traffic through this continent, and where reliability, flexibility, and smarter digital execution are increasingly valued amid the continuing infrastructure challenges. The recent turbulence has further underlined air cargo stakeholders' extraordinary agility, and the crucial role the sector plays in global trade resilience and economic growth. It also illustrates the growing role of data and technology in resilience and reacting rapidly, effectively, and efficiently to fast-changing circumstances. The magazine also highlights the increasing contribution generative Ai is beginning to make and expected to deliver, but also air cargo's role in transporting global Ai-related goods. These were among the themes at IATA's World Cargo Symposium in March, highlighted in the WCS Conference Report (page 52). The magazine also features an in-depth Women in Air Cargo report (page 32) exploring the state of gender diversity within the sector following the conclusion in December of IATA's 25by2025 initiative. It examines, among other things, why IATA's 18-person Cargo Advisory Council is currently 100% male, and what progress is being made to strengthen diversity in air cargo leadership pipelines. It also asks various women working within air cargo about their experiences, what has supported and encouraged them, and what more needs to be done to improve diversity – which is vital for good decision-making, for optimising the talent pool, and creating a workplace and workforce fit for the future.
Episode 88: Hormuz Oil Shock, Airfares and the Future of Flying - IATA's Chief Economist on the New Energy Crisis Oil shocks used to feel like something that happened in markets, headlines and awkward economist panels. Not anymore. In this episode of Trade Splaining, we look at how the latest energy shock is moving from oil markets into the parts of the economy people actually feel - airfares, airline schedules, fuel tanks, EV demand, government energy policy and, potentially, your next holiday. The Strait of Hormuz crisis is no longer just a geopolitics story. It is becoming a consumer story, a transport story and a very expensive reminder that energy security still runs through some very narrow places. This week, Marie Owens Thomsen, Chief Economist at the International Air Transport Association (IATA), joins the show to explain why aviation is facing what she calls a double energy crisis: an oil crisis and a refining crisis. Airlines do not fly on crude oil - they fly on jet fuel. And when jet fuel prices rise sharply, airlines face immediate pressure on costs, routes, pricing and survival. Marie breaks down why sustainable aviation fuel is not as simple as “just make greener jet fuel,” why refineries are far more interconnected than most people realise, and why the future of flying depends on much bigger questions around energy systems, investment, infrastructure and political timelines. In other words: aviation may be only a small slice of refined fuel output, but when the system starts creaking, everyone notices. Also in this episode: Trump and Xi apparently make trade nice again - details pending, napkins possibly missing - Europe's airlines brace for higher costs, EVs get a crisis-driven boost, Swatch and Audemars Piguet release expensive pendant-shaped plastic, Switzerland accidentally gets a king, and Italy battles the real menace of our time: marauding peacocks. In this episode: How the Hormuz crisis is feeding into fuel prices, airline costs and travel disruption Why jet fuel is not the same thing as crude oil - and why that matters How higher fuel prices could affect airfares, routes and airline profitability Why Europe may be especially exposed to aviation fuel shocks Marie Owens Thomsen on IATA, sustainability and the future of air transport Why sustainable aviation fuel requires a whole energy-system rethink How refinery economics shape the future of aviation Whether this crisis could accelerate renewable energy and alternative fuels The strange incentives now facing governments, airlines and consumers Switzerland's self-declared king and Italy's peacock problem Featured guest Marie Owens Thomsen is Chief Economist at the International Air Transport Association (IATA), where she is also responsible for environmental and sustainability activities and serves on IATA's Management Committee. She previously worked at Lombard Odier as Head of Global Trends and Sustainability and has held senior roles across investment banking, private banking and international economics.

Are flights across the world about to be grounded? Is a terrible war about to create an unlikely good news story for the climate? As conflict in the Middle East threatens the Strait of Hormuz, jet fuel shortages are forcing aviation to confront a structural vulnerability it has spent decades avoiding.This week, Tom Rivett-Carnac, Christiana Figueres and Paul Dickinson examine what the shortage reveals: aviation's near-total dependence on fossil fuels, the structural reasons it has proved so hard to break, and whether it's ever going to be possible to fix. They speak with Karel Bockstael and Roxanne van Rijn, former aviation insiders who co-founded Call Aviation to Action, a movement designed to reach the industry's senior leaders and push for much-needed change. They explain why kerosene remains the only viable option for long-haul flight, how thin margins trap airlines into opposing the very regulation they need, and why this fuel shock may be the scarcity event that finally forces the model to shift. Could this crisis become aviation's turning point? And in a world where up to 80% of people have never set foot on a plane - and 1% account for half of all aviation emissions - what would a truly fair future for flight actually look like?Learn More:✈️ Explore Call Aviation to Action - the movement co-founded by Karel and Roxanne and others, pushing for industry-wide transformation from within

No corporate spin. Just the intelligence pilots actually need. This week, three stories stacked on top of each other and they tell two completely different versions of where this industry is heading. IATA put hard numbers on the Gulf War, with Middle Eastern traffic down 58.6 percent year-on-year and global growth slowing to 2.1 percent in March. India's three biggest airlines wrote to their own government saying they are days from grounding aircraft as fuel rises from 40 percent to 60 percent of operating costs. Spirit folded. The UAE flipped its airspace switch back on and Emirates restored 96 percent of its network. Which story are you actually flying in? In this episode of The Bryan Air Podcast, Bryan Roseveare and Ryan Parrock break down the IATA fuel shock report, India's airlines on the brink, the UAE airspace reopening, Spirit Airlines folding, the BA taxi pilot job paying 100,000 dollars a year, the United 767 truck strike at Newark, and Japan Airlines testing humanoid robots on the ramp.
