✈️ Airline Just Shocked Everyone With This Starlink Decision — Plus a Solo Passenger Takes Over an Entire 737
About this episode
Copa Airlines introduces Starlink Wi-Fi with a unique catch, while IHG One Rewards reduces customer service options and other travel updates are discussed.
Copa Airlines is rolling out Starlink Wi-Fi across its entire fleet, but there's a major catch that sets it apart from every other airline offering inflight connectivity. IHG One Rewards has quietly eliminated a key customer service channel, leaving members with fewer options when disputes arise. World of Hyatt just rolled out an early award booking window for elite members and cardholders, giving them a significant edge at high-demand properties. Three new Bilt Mastercards have launched with distinct earning structures and welcome offers worth understanding before you apply. Plus, a stranded British Airways passenger ended up with the most unexpected upgrade in recent memory — and the lesson it holds for every traveler.
