Alex is live from Rio de Janeiro at the 2026 IATA AGM - the world's biggest annual gathering of airline CEOs and aviation leaders. In this episode: what it's actually like navigating Brazil as a first-timer, the chaos of São Paulo's domestic terminal, LATAM's surprisingly impressive onboard experience, and the biggest takeaways from the airline industry's most important conference. Jet fuel shortages, rising airfares, Philippine Airlines joining Oneworld, Willie Walsh's exit from IATA, Etihad's unsustainably low fares, Boeing's progress under new leadership, and next year's AGM in Xiamen, China. All the aviation news you need in one place.
