We take a little tour of those airports: OKA, ISG, HND, HNL, OGG, SFO, CEB, CRK, DXB, LGW, and wish all airlines would be called something like Japan Transocean Air.

Show Notes

Alex tells us all about flying to Okinawa’s Naha airport (via Tokyo), Hawaii (717s being flown like NYC cab drivers), the Philippines (that loop to Clarke airport), and more. We have one more Concorde to visit (next, a Millenium Falcon), we dream of Japanese airlines on-board experience (that “Italian” food, though?), we calculate the length of DXB concourses (it can be a long walk), we ponder the future of Manila airports (they’ll end up with no less than THREE massive international airports), we wonder if selling guitars in an airport yields any results (Cebu has seen a lot of improvement though), we discuss legroom (bulkhead FTW), and admire Emirates’ consistency (the new business class is the old business class?).

More travels to come, more episodes to come (if Paul makes it back), but we won’t promise when (SORRY!)

Happy travels!
