DLD 81: Bumpy Landings


A bit of a rough week with a few emergency landings and some earnings calls which were tremendously positive, but also very cautious on the outlook. What’s on the horizon??

Specifically on the agenda for today’s episode:

  • Turkish airplane emergency landed at Istanbul – engine fire
  • United 77Ws and the earnings call in general
  • Delta dropping Moscow seasonally and other continued capacity cuts
  • United plans to up its game in long-haul Coach, including free beer & wine coming back to the Friendly Skies
  • Priority Pass is being dropped as an access method for the United Club – May 15th.

A few more topics, too, as is always the case. Enjoy the show!
