In this episode, Andrew starts off by answering the question of why some airplane window shades are “upside down” and retract downwards. Then he talks about who is actually operating your flight by exploring airline partnerships and what it means for travelers. 

  • Why do some airplane window shades retract downwards instead of upwards? Find out in this episode and keep an eye out for it on your next flight.
