In this episode of Haverin About, Bethany joins Stuart from London as we dive into the world of business travel — the good, the bad, and the utterly chaotic.

If you work in healthcare IT, sales, consulting, or any role that sends you on the road, this conversation will feel very familiar.

We break down essential travel routines, airport preferences (ATL forever), Delta status realities, long-haul flight survival, SKO etiquette, and the travel tech we consider absolute must-haves.

We also share favorite road-warrior hacks, personal stories from early careers, a surprisingly HR-compliant workplace romance tip, and why the rule “Nothing good happens after midnight” is still undefeated.
