Navigate — The Boarding Pass

The uncertainty of what the “new normal” will be comes with apprehension and plenty of questions, especially in regards to travel. Since the documented start of the COVID-19 pandemic, airline traffic has significantly decreased with projections of continued stagnation carrying through 2020. As countries and states begin to reopen, there’s no doubt that the urge to travel will reemerge as well. But, how does that translate into our current situation? Flying, which once was a seemingly enjoyable experience for most, now feels like navigating through an extreme sport obstacle course with no sight of the finish line. Which begs the question, what is the future of flying?

NAVIGATE: What Your Travel Companion Really Thinks Of You

They say you don’t really know someone until you’ve traveled with them.

NAVIGATE: All Airlines Are Not Created Equal

Let me preface this by saying, there’s a high probability that our values are not the same. I’m concerned with traveling safely on schedule far more than a reclining seat and my carry-on fee. I have non-negotiables when choosing an airline; safety, timeliness and an overall good customer experience.

If you would have asked me 5 years ago, would I go somewhere solo?, the answer would have been a strong NO. But over the years, I grew tired of planning trips with friends that never happened or being bored on vacation because I have different interests.
