After taking the world’s last scheduled flight on a Russian-manufactured plane, it was time to continue my aviation journey through Central Asia. Central Asia—and Uzbekistan in particular—is one of my absolute favorite regions on the planet. The food, the landscapes, and especially the hospitality of the people are completely second to none.

Today, I was headed from Tashkent to Delhi, India. While Uzbekistan’s aviation scene is dominated by Uzbekistan Airways and Qanot Sharq, I booked myself on a relatively new carrier founded in 2023 that I’d never tried before: Centrum Air. Their slogan is “Fly Simple,” which had me genuinely excited to see what they were all about.

The golden era of aviation adventures is slowly coming to an end. This year marked the end of a true legend of the skies: the world’s last scheduled passenger service operated by the Antonov An-2 was officially discontinued.

I recently hopped on AirAsia X’s 7-hour flight from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to Tashkent, Uzbekistan (TAS) in their Premium Flatbed business class. On paper, it sounds like a sweet deal: priority treatment, a lie-flat seat, food, and lounge access. But on the ground at KLIA2, I stumbled right into a cheeky little setup that I think is extremely misleading to passengers.

This plane is going to change the way we travel in the future. Small, luxurious, versatile, and capable of staying in the air for up to 11 hours, the Saudia Airbus A321XLR is narrow-body aviation at its absolute finest.

What happens after I hit publish on a review? Do airlines reach out? Do they try to fix things, or do they just get mad? Well, my recent trip on Air Montenegro turned into one of the most wild examples of how powerful our community actually is. It got so crazy that even the Prime

IndiGo recently launched its flagship international route onboard the brand-new Airbus A321XLR, introducing their “Stretch” business class product to connect Mumbai and Athens.

Why is India not capable of building a world-class full-service airline? Is Air India failing all over again? Well, things certainly don’t look good. Tata seems to regret buying the airline, Singapore Airlines isn’t very happy about the joint venture either, and the general public is rapidly losing faith.

We all used to hate EgyptAir. Let’s be honest about it: rude, completely untrained cabin crew, filthy, outdated planes, and catering that was nearly unpalatable. For the longest time, flying Egypt’s flag carrier was a painful ordeal, earning them a reputation as one of the worst airlines on Earth.
