Camilla: “You are brilliant at drawing people out with great questions, creating really enjoyable podcasts.” Mark Wakeling: “Really enjoyed the Chemmy interview. From an early age just wouldn't take no for an answer and her infectious enthusiasm is inspiring.” Jim: “I was listening to the podcast the other day while hiking up a mountain. You were talking about where to get second-hand skis. At the beginning of the season, a lot of resorts organise Braderies where the local shops pool ex-hire or last season kit to sell in one convenient place. Another great option is shops like Trocsport which sell secondhand skis on behalf of individuals. There are loads of small shops like this.” There are now 226 episodes of The Ski Podcast to catch up with and 121 of those were listened to in the last week.

Ever wondered about the life of a flight attendant (and ground crew)? This is the episode for you. Paul welcomes his good friend Vinod for an episode full of fun aviation and travel stories — a long episode, with the laughs taking quite some of that length.From Edmonton to Vancouver, via Calgary (and its keys!), the many airports he worked at (Paul still hasn't been to Canada), Martinair, British Airways, Air Berlin, or WestJet, amongst the many airlines he worked for (and in a world of crew camaraderie around the world, BA really seems like a big family).Is there something about the uniform that transcends trends? And Vinod's secret to treat cabin crew well (Paul is inspired).The experience of turbulences in the air (and yes, we discuss that fateful Singapore Airlines flight), but also the video game of driving a jet bridge.Can you get Covid from an aircraft wing: flying during the pandemic to (and working at) Tokyo 2020 (NRT, a game of chairs) and Beijing 2022 (PEK, calcifying under sanitizing spray).Does each airline have a specific smell, or is that a neurotic avgeek thing? (dried fish seems like a bad omen though).  Vinod attempts to convince Paul that Frankfurt and Heathrow are great airports, and he nearly succeeds (his definition of LHR is just the best, and Paul softens on FRA), and we (kinda) agree on Singapore's carpet.And many more stories (Vinod's most memorable flights are quite something). Listen to Vinod Viswalingam's podcast (hosted along with the great Geoff Dahl), Seat 1A:Seat1A on Apple PodcastsSeat1A on SpotifySeat1A (website with more links)

Usually I lock up a summer trip as far ahead of time as possible. But due to the current award travel patterns and my need for 4 seats I found myself without a summer booking and a family wanting to travel. Today Robert and I chat about the ups and downs of the search for a summer trip, award space scarcity, alliance and search engine fragmentation and more. - Enjoy! 01:55 Let's talk about the Constraints of this trip: We didn't have a single destination on our list but rather a short list of places to go 2 Adults 2 children. 3:00 Summer, during Summer Break (June/July) Prices and awards rise dramatically in Jun/Jul and award space dries up even worse than it is during other parts of the year 4:24 No flexibility in cabin (I couldn't even pitch premium economy) As we've gotten older we've taken less trips, but put more into them. Last year we spent 36 years on vacation, but we're trending into longer trips 6:45 Don't want to reposition Saw some options through IAH, PHL. Also saw flights through Canada I don't like clearing customs and then having another flight, with little kids that is a pressure point 9:00 Point balances:  I'm a non-hoarder. I have about 250,000 Alaska, 400,000 AA and very little other miles on hand.  I do have a large MR and UR balance I can draw down. Otherwise I'll cash them out 9:53 AA out of LAX, comparing AA vs BA. points yeah served up LAX-LHR on AA with Alaska Miles: But AA wouldn't show this for a similar 'low' price But adding a leg--searching LAX-CPH showed the low price for the whole flight. This seems like a 'married logic' issue. It means pricing is end to end (LAX/CPH) vs segment by segment. This has become VERY common with dynamic pricing. This makes the old 'get over the pond' mentality dangerous. Searching between city pairs only for long-haul flights won't show you the whole picture (Not just on AA, across most airlines now). This is also a search engine fragmentation because you are relying on the search engine to do the routing logic. 15:41 Let's talk about award space out of LAX I've had an eye on LAX long haul routes for more than a decade. I've never seen it this thin That's on top of more capacity than ever, with better cabins than ever The 64,000 point question is: Will those seats get sold, or will they be released closer to the dates of travel Current space isn't a great indicator. There are very different people wanting to go to Europe in the next 2 months than in Jun/July 18:00 Quick discussion about the ‘loss' of partner award space This has made it more important than ever to hold flexible currencies like MR/UR/Cap 1 One ways with different currencies helps spread out the search net Ultimately you still need that triangle of flexibility we've talked about forever here: Dates, destination or class of service. You have to flex one (or more) of them.  Flights Have to Exist in order for you to take them Flightconnections.com is still the place i go to start any search I look for ALL long haul options out of LAX (remember I don't like to reposition) Some filtering is needed, because these are not all flights that can be booked with miles easily, but without a premium account you'll be limited to filtering by a single airline. 18:40 Options start coming into focus EF showed space on Air Tahiti Nui LAX-CDG in business. I've flow this before. It really isn't great, but it is a lie flat and the flight was an easy feeling one. Unfortunately with a few calls to AA agents none of them could see the space. I tried some other tricks but with no luck. I don't know what's going on there–if it is a block or phantom space From there I saw on pointsyeah some air france awards in the 130,000 per person (plus about $300 in fees).  I didn't love those so I went to Air france's site and started going day by day, looking at all flights i might want to take.  Ontario-TPE, LAX-Manchester, LAX-Oslo/stockholm/Helsinki/Rome.  And something interesting started to show up… The biggest issue is they don't always show you the partner space and they don't by default sort by lowest price in miles (not the only site that does this). Again going city pair by city pair pulled up an option, LAX-OSL for 4 passengers for about 72,000 miles and $225 each. There's a huge hurdle here: Foreign program, I have no miles in and have never used. I'm about to transfer 300,000 MR into it. This better be REAL space. Married logic makes it look even more phantom when you search LAX-CDG and find it is 700,000 per person. Almost makes you want to skiplag an award ticket. Of course people online are talking about phantom space biting them, and I just had that issue with TN and AA. So I called Flying Blue and asked for the rep to see the space, and put it on hold. And he did, which made me feel good about this space.  24:19 Still Need a Return -- Just as Uncertain as before But I still had no return. So the entire search starts again, but this time with even more restrictive constraints. It doesn't help me if I find a return from Tokyo-LAX– not the entire search has to be from Oslo, or somewhere nearby to LAX (or somewhere nearby). And I don't want to clear customs on the east coast with my kids, and have to keep picking up bags, so I'm looking at even less options. AA had an option through LHR. The fees were huge, but I was sure if i called I could get them lower by making the first leg in economy. Aeroplan had space on Air canada (not partner) through montreal in PE. This was not ideal–I didn't want to fly PE and would be putting miles into aeroplan that I would cancel and possibly orphan. 25:30 Let's discuss Stranding miles?  PE Vs J? Anything you like here?  The trend of moderately priced awards with native miles almost guarantees orphaned miles if you cancel a trip. That didn't used to be the case–but the lack of partner space makes it happen Beware expiration of miles (Asian carriers don't allow extending miles for example). 27:30 Book and then garden vs. wait and book   There are benefits to each approach, but drawbacks as well. I probably could have gotten the family on board with a situation like 2 in Business 2 in Premium. But I wasn't even seeing that option Nice upgrade of AA Miles being useful for JAL Premium economy.  31:06 Nothing is Free, Everything is Cash Luck–ultimately was the key. Immense luck in the form of 4 seats OSL-LAX on air france on the exact day I wanted to return at the lowest level I'd seen all search, an average of 48,000 per person (plus $320 in fees). With the outbound on hold I transferred enough for this return, booked it online (if it was phantom I would have used those miles for the outbound) and then transferred again to ticket the outbound on the phone. Total: 491,750 MR plus $2200 in fees.  $2200 in cash is 200,000 Membership rewards cashed out with schwab. Compare to an 88,000 United booking this is very close to the same thing A total of 691,750 MR for 4 people. Compares to Can't really do much to improve this or risk stranding these miles 37:41 This one shook out–but I don't want to let things slip past me like this.  Close in doesn't work for me, both with requesting days off of work and with planning trips So I need to remind myself to start looking NOW for winter break, and soon enough for Summer 2025.  Flex the demand schedule with your family too.

In an attempt to close out 2023 with something joyful, exuberant, new, and filled with a smattering of mostly Love (and a little Hate), LHR is proud to present what may become our new annual tradition, a holiday Tierlist. For our first outing, we're heading back to an old favorite ⁠Triple Love Topic⁠, the James …

For our new two-pronged format, LHR now brings a full episode of relationship questions for the second half of the month. We begin with Kevin and Vicky (American Pie), and the question of if it's weird for him to be looking up instructions on how to do foreplay while right in the moment. Andy emphasizes …

Drew talks about managing throught the Summer flight schedule and Doug is getting ready to head back to training, this time in Altus, Oklahoma, the middle of nowhere. Is it really the middle of nowhere though? Drew does some research and finds goat petting, corn shucking, and axe throwing to keep Doug occupied. We also discuss:Spirit Aerosystems and the IAM reach a tentative agreement to avoid a strike and delays to 737 and 787 deliveriesQantas details its A350 cabin layout for its Project Sunrise flights to LHR and JFK - spoiler, there's a lounge and its not for first classSpirit Aerosystems make the whole fuselage of the 737 and many parts for the 787. Should Boeing buy them? Slide deployments - why do they happen? How much do they cost to repair , and why is Doug scared every time he opens a door?Join the discussion! https://www.nexttripnetwork.com/

Andrew starts by talking about one of the aspects of flying that causes the most nervousness: turbulence. Then, the main segment for this episode looks at airport codes. Should we be afraid of turbulence? While turbulence can be nerve-wracking even for frequent flyers, there isn't all that much to be worried about. Learn more in this episode and check out Andrew's chat with airline pilot Owen Zupp about turbulence in Episode 8 for more.  JFK, LHR, SYD – these airport codes clearly represent New York's JFK Airport, London Heathrow, and Sydney Airport. But these airports also have the codes of KJFK, EGLL, and YSSY. Why is this, what are these codes used for, and what do they mean? Find out more in this episode. Did you know that there's a single airport with three airport codes? Andrew talks about where this unique airport is located and why it has so many codes.If you're enjoying Flying Smarter, please take a minute to leave a five-star review for the podcast if you're listening on a platform that allows you to do so like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Goodpods.

How is it we had never actually done MAD as an episode title? This ends today, however the mad MADrid dash from T4S to T4 never does. Alex has lots to say about BA and it's …not great (he's not alone to think like this). Paul calls it, the better London airport is definitively Gatwick (stop being a wannabe posh by preferring LHR). Lufthansa introduces a grand new First Class, and a super complex Tetris business class with 14+ options (Swiss introduces the same, but in bordeaux). Will Dolomiti be folded into ITA (the ever growing Lufthansa Group realm of the European skies). Emirates is the Apple of airlines, you might not love them but they offer incredible consistency at massive scale, truly admirable (DXB could do with a bit of a refresh though). You know what, you can fly the 747-400 to Palma (BE QUICK, BEFORE THE 744 ERA ENDS).We mentioned (and promised to link) those two:The worst airport in the world (by Jo Ellison, in the FT, paywall possible, I'M SORRY, JO, FOR MISNAMING YOUR LAST NAME!!!!), andThe DISGRACEFUL State of British Airways (by Nonstop Dan, on YouTube).See you again for 127, and, in the meanwhile, please give us any feedback on Twitter or Instagram  (and Apple Podcasts if you're inclined to give us a nice review).

It backfires on them massively, especially with the very short notice period of 36 hours to airlines. Harvey L. sums it up in two words here: https://lnkd.in/d4riG88XEmirates took the fight public and said "they refuse" to comply with this request, especially at such short notice. Many people posted about this including Tony Anderson from easyGroup, saying this is unlikely to end well. https://lnkd.in/dNkmBm_hDelta Air Lines had to take the extreme step of flying an empty plane to LHR simply to collect left behind luggage. Kevin Coffey tells us more about this here: https://lnkd.in/dq3GQTT6The airport disruptions are in other European hubs as well, and Icelandair is reportedly flying their own baggage handlers on some of their flights now! https://lnkd.in/dyEhrteCVirgin Atlantic finally producing a new premier product - the Retreat. Here's Shashank's take on it. https://lnkd.in/d_TwWdbqLufthansa announces GDS fees that will differ per GDS. Seems cheapest on Amadeus and most expensive on Travelport.

Mientras se anuncia el regreso a España de Juan Carlos I tras dos años en Dubái… Hablamos con la periodista ANA PARDO DE VERA, sobre su libro La armadura del rey. Un retrato del reinado de Juan Carlos I -Un libro escrito a partir de una profusa documentación y más de cien entrevistas a personalidades de todas las instancias del poder, pasado y actual. Ana Pardo de Vera: La coraza del rey, se empezó a forjar desde antes de empezar su reinado. Una coraza que le sitúa como puntal de régimen del 78, con la colaboración muy importante de Felipe González y Santiago Carrillo. El emérito vuelve a España como si no hubieran existieran las revelaciones de cuentas offshore, tarjetas black, chantajes, comisiones e investigaciones judiciales a nivel internacional. Ana Pardo de Vera: Felipe VI, gobierna para una parte de la ciudadanía española, como quedó patente en su discurso del tres de octubre de 2017. La reina Letizia, todo su empeño es ver reinar a su hija Leonor. Es urgente la reforma de la Ley de Secretos Oficiales que fue aprobada por el Congreso en junio de 2020. Esta es una ley franquista de 1968, y sepamos qué pasó el 23 F y cual fue el papel de Juan Carlos I. Ana Pardo de Vera: Juan Carlo I, traicionó a su padre y después a Franco, ya que ante éste juró los Principios del Movimiento, que luego ignoró, ante la presión de dar una nueva imagen.

In this experience we look at seating configuration on aircraft in economy or coach class. These days, with the COVID-19 pandemic, people are wondering about seating and what it might look like in the future. We will still need to pick our seats. Vinod has great stress when he picks a seat – particularly on long-haul flights – checking all angles of what his seat experience will be. Seat comfort has come a long way – increasing seat comfort used to mean adding more padding. Geoff shares his experience sitting in an aircraft seat from a Lockheed Constellation...my how far we've come. Even though airplane manufacturers have a row plan dictating how seats are set out, the actual number of seats, seat pitch and cabin layout is up to the airline. Can low cost carriers add additional rows – Vinod shares a memory of going through this. What is seat pitch? What do you need to research when selecting a seat? Remember that even if the plane type is the same at an airline, it may not be configured the same way. What happens if the airline reduces the amount of premium cabin? Remember that if an airline is charging a premium for a seat selection, it might not be the best seat. We're not telling you what the best seat is, since we all have our own reasons. What's the most stable seat? Where's the galley...the lavatory? How narrow is your seat? Is your airline using festival-style seating? What are some strategies for festival-style seating airlines? What should you watch out for? Vinod shares a story how old-school thick foam padding protected him on a flight to London Heathrow. Vinod shares a story of getting moved a seat that would only recline on the way to AMS. Vinod shares a standby experience when he got a special seat. There is a tip on what to ask about if your flight is oversold or cancelled. Vinod shares another crazy story – this time with festival seating on a 777 from GRU to JFK. But sometimes flights are wide open – Geoff shares an experience from LHR to YYC where he had four seats to himself.

In this experience we celebrate the 2019 holiday season with a look at some of our crazy and (somewhat) horrific holiday travel stories. But first, Vinny and Geoff celebrate a milestone in this experience. This is the 25th show that they have done in tandem. Here's to the next 25 being just as fun of a ride. Vinny shares his incredible journey from CPH-LHR-AMS-JFK-YHM-YYC-YVR during a massive New Year's storm in YYZ. How many things can go wrong for Vinny on this flight? So many that we interject a couple of stories from Geoff along the way. Although Vinny's story is related to a standby experience, remember that you too could be affected by weather and become a standby passenger. Vinny starts his journey in CPH – it was just after New Year's – and world weather seemed normal, for now. He connects rather uneventfully to LHR and then AMS (little does he know what's coming). Flying standby on KLM he notices his flight options across Canada are quickly disappearing as there are no seats available. All US options were disappearing as well, except for JFK. So off to New York for Vinny. Geoff shares his experience when he caught the flu just before having to fly from VIE-DUS (don't worry we're just sharing the travel experience). He makes it to VIE and manages to catch his flight – but when he arrives in a delirious state to DUS, just how many times can he catch the wrong train? The next day he catches the correct train to FRA for a connection to YYC with Air Canada...all the while missing the massive 2013 Ice Storm that hit Toronto. He arrives in YYC - only to be subject to a medical check first implemented after the SARS epidemic. We return to Vinny who is now at JFK – but his bag isn't. The storm is brewing, and Vinny knows to get priority he needs to get to LGA. He learns about the "passenger rest area" at LGA – even with official blankets. He wakes up to find that LGA-YYZ flights are getting cancelled all over. But wait, there is a WestJet crew – maybe there's a chance? Disappointment awaits – how did the sand get in the engine? What hope is there left? Not much by air, the open road was the only thing left and there was some good fortune with rental costs. Just in time to drive through Manhattan at rush hour! Geoff shares another winter holiday travel delay experience yet again caused by a blizzard at YYZ. Conditions meant that the YUL-YOW-YEG ticket became a standby ticket, but only the YUL-YOW segment could be confirmed. Some t-shirts were traded for hotel and meal vouchers since he wasn't flying further that day. Eventually he got back to YEG with an upgrade to business class. The key lesson in the adventure is to be nice to front line staff...honey will get your further than vinegar – but make sure you know your cancellation or delay rights. We return to Vinny, in a rental car, in Manhattan at rush hour. No storm visible yet the sun is still shining. But as night falls the storm unleashes its fury. The storm is so terrible that it closes the Interstate. Vinny pushes on, blasting through the blizzard in Upstate New York on country roads – all the while having no proper winter clothing. Finally, he reaches the Canadian border in the wee hours of the morning – with snow caked on the back of his car – and the severity of the storm becomes fully known. Vinny has to get to another southern Ontario airport – YHM it is. But how to return the car – since it's not at YYZ and there is no return desk? Vinny leaves multiple notes and voicemails and parks the car hoping for the best as he boards the flight to connect at YYC. How does it turn out? Four hours after landing, where was Vinny? Back on a flight as crew! Lessons from the experience: 1) Keep moving forward; 2) figure out what your biggest block of problem could be; 3) Be prepared that it might cost a bit of money to get out of a jam; 4) Look for telltale signs of things that are happening; 5) Make sure you have all of your alerts set up...and check the weather. Oh, and by the way...what happened to Vinny's WS travel buddy? News Items: Flyertalk article "The Best and Worst Airports for Holiday Travel" breakingtravelnews article "Christmas getaway begins in earnest at easyJet" Vinny and Geoff give big kudos to crews and staff working over Christmas. Here's to another great 25 experiences together.

In this experience Vinny and Geoff go into the mailbag and review a bunch of different questions and feedback. We look at what is the logic and order of the meal and beverage service that takes place during a flight? We also look at free hotel stops – are they still provided by an airline? Why do some passengers get served first? how do the cabin crew decide to serve passengers? How does the airline decide how many crew members to have? Who's in charge of the cabin crew? Why is one cabin crew always in the galley? Vinny shares his experience of working as inflight crew on multiple airlines. How does the service flow and order work in first, business and economy classes? How does the length of flight change the timings and flow? What are all these different meals that are available for flights? The serving of your beverages, there are different methods that crew use. Which row does the crew start their service at? What happens when passengers have to get up? Why do special meals have to get served first? How does the crew have to adapt to buy on board options? Here comes the turbulence – how does the crew handle the baggage carts in bumpy conditions? Just how much beef or chicken meals are there? Is your flight being catered independently or from a centralized kitchen? Geoff shares an experience at ORD where the special meal didn't match up where he was flying to. And what about the crew – what are they eating? Geoff shares a story of a travel agent who got a bland surprise. Sitting at the back, might not be bad for service – it all depends on the airline. Vinny remembers his favourite lamb pastry flying to Canada from LHR on Air Canada. There are shared memories of getting leftovers as ground crew – both above and below the wing. Airlines that provide free overnight hotel stops – Vinny shares a childhood memory of a flight from YYZ-KUL via HKG with an included stay at the Kimberly Hotel. We share a story from Evelyn W who got a complimentary stay at a hotel in DEL while flying from SYD-FRA. But alas it is a rare thing nowadays. Some airlines though offer a stopover option without an additional fee.

Before you buy your RUPES polisher, you NEED to watch this. Dylan Von Kleist explains the differences between the Bigfoot LHR 15 Mark ll and the LHR 21 Mark ll. In which one was specifically designed for the detailing market. It goes without saying that RUPES polishers are a popular tool in the detailing industry. They have an arsenal of premium Italian polishers and pneumatic tools that pack some serious power. However, one major question when looking at the RUPES Bigfoot is, do I get the LHR 15ES, the Mark 2 over the ES, or go big with the LHR 21 Mark 2, etc. The possibilities are endless. Therefore Dylan gives us a breakdown of the ES vs the Mark ll as well as the LHR15 vs the LHR21. The LHR 15 was actually designed as a detailing tool, whereas the 21 is actually found more in bodyshops. Either way, both of these tools do a GREAT job in correcting paint and removing scratches and swirls with their DA orbital function. The only real difference is that the 21 covers more area, where the 15 can get through curved areas easier. Do you own one of these tools? Chime in and give us your thoughts on the 15 vs the 21!
