“Ok, so I’ve heard, but not checked the accuracy of the data, that Brussels Airlines run 3000 empty flights to maintain take-off and landing slots. Then again, Lufthansa run 18,000. You mentioned Stuart, that a whistle-blower at an English airport, told you the super-rich were chartering large planes to fly them around the world, alone. Just them, and the crew on the flight. Is this really the actions of a civilised society, guided by science and not capital?".
In this podcast you never know what itch the conversation Stuart and William have is going to scratch, and this episode where they discuss, digest, and explore a question from listener Roman in Slovakia is no exception.
During this episode an 'Independent' article about empty flights is mentioned which backs up Roman's question. We also mention flightradar24, a global flight tracking service, that provides you with real-time information about thousands of aircraft around the world, at any given moment in time.
Also, in this episode we mention Tommy's Outdoors podcast.
