Matt and Cody return with warm laughs and aviation chatter. Cody shares highlights from the NGPA Industry Expo in Palm Springs and his excited steps toward becoming a pilot (sunglasses and flight bag optional). Matt fondly recalls his first Narita trip — wandering a beloved supermarket, soaking in an onsen, and surviving the joyful sensory overload of Don Quixote — plus the camaraderie of working a 12-hour international flight. They wrap up with a clear look at Southwest Airlines’ new seating policy and what it means for passengers. Tune in for travel dreams, good stories, and lighthearted airline talk.
