Description
Welcome Aboard The Airways Podcast! The 53rd episode of the show starts with Rohan Anand, Vinay Bhaskara, and Enrique Perrella chatting about how the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect the world's airlines, focusing on Avianca, Colombia's flag carrier, which just filed for Chapter 11. The next segment of this episode welcomes our Senior Correspondent, Chris Sloan, who jumped on a phone call with Gordon Bethune, a retired US airline executive who was the CEO of Continental Airlines from 1994 until his retirement at the end of 2004. Bethune weighs in and shares his thoughts on the current state of the aviation industry and shares some comments on Boeing and the extended crisis it's been mitigating. This episode closes with a different approach: Vinay and Rohan ask Enrique which are his favorite aircraft, airline, and airport, entering into an entertaining AvGeek debate. As the world continues to battle COVID-19, the Airways Team hopes you will enjoy this episode. Tune in, The Airways Podcast is here!
