Show Notes

Qatar’d? No, that new Al Mourjan Lounge at Doha is stunning — one thing we can’t say about that RAK one.
Turkish’d? Not really, when a downgrade gets you full emergency exit rows — though that 333 seat made Paul act like an animal.
Boeing has gone full MAX for its windows openings (ok, ok, poor one, but come on Boeing, do better!) — the new 350-1000 goes for a dimmable shade instead.
The JAL 350 crash, a miracle for many (but not all), a testament to the crew, the industry, that aircraft, and Airbus.
Alex and Paul agree, the best eye masks stays the Emirates F one (the previous version!).
Go around grinning? YES.

And Happy New Year to all (this was recorded on Jan 31, just in time!)
