New Episode: How The Airlines Are Screwing Customers, Cranky Flier On A Roll

You may have missed it when we released it, but a new Miles To Go episode is ready for you to download and listen!

I reached out to Brett Snyder, Cranky Flier about one of his recent posts.  If you don’t know him, he’s an ex-airline employee who knows a ton about the industry.  He runs his own business (Cranky Concierge) that will bail you out of trouble when you’re flying.

Brett has strong feelings on the way the Big 3 US airlines are handling seat assignments.  His argument struck a chord with me and he agreed to come on the podcast to discuss it.  Along the way, we got sidetracked and ended up discussing a painful new American Airlines policy and United’s efforts to keep their customers from breaking the rules.  It’s a bit of a long segment, but we could have talked for an hour.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t wait to have Brett back on the podcast again.

We wrap up the show with news of a hotel status match offer you may want to look into and a reminder on the value of shopping portals.

Hope you enjoy the show!

  1. Hi Ed, the 10/24/2018 iTunes release date on this episode threw me off too. Your post had a 11/16/2018 date stamp, so I kept looking for the episode in the first or second week of November 2018 in iTunes. I’m a long time Cranky fan, but this was my first time listening to your podcast. I’ll have to come back more often. Great job! Haj
