Description

Join Dan and Alex as they welcome their first-ever guest co-host, Nicky Kelvin from The Points Guy, for a deep dive into all things aviation. The trio debates Korean Air's controversial new livery, questions whether Skytrax ratings truly matter, and shares their most memorable flight experiences—from Singapore Suites to unexpected Asiana excellence.

The conversation explores underrated destinations like South Korea and Uzbekistan versus overhyped spots like Bali, while calling out airlines that don't live up to their reputations. They tackle this year's aviation safety concerns, discuss what they'd fix if they ran British Airways (spoiler: crew training and lounge consistency), and fire through hot takes on narrow-body long-haul flights, in-flight phone calls, and airport theories.

Packed with insider insights, honest opinions, and genuine aviation passion, this episode captures what happens when three frequent flyers who've collectively taken hundreds of flights get together to talk planes.
