  • Always insightful and entertaining

    Look, Ben and Scott are awesome and I look forward to this podcast every week. I don’t always agree with their views on the airline business (as a passenger at least) but their discussions are always thoughtful and piquant, and their positions earnest. more

  • Great podcast

    One of my favourite podcasts. Have you considered interviewing Micheal O’Leary of Ryanair? A man of strong views, robustly expressed and would make a fascinating guest.

  • Because of Ben!

    I only listen because Ben is a funny guy who uses his industry expertise to provide opinion to the stories shaping the industry. However, it seems like Chris is always annoyed or disagreeing with him during any opinion piece. Chris is smart, from what I can tell, but I don’t think this podcast is doing him any favors. He seems miserable. more

  • Love the show

    I love the show, it’s very informative, entertaining, and always engaging. One request of the hosts - please, please invest in higher quality microphones. Most of the time you sound like you’re recording the podcast in a barrel. Sound quality could really use an improvement.
