It’s almost the end of the year – but it’s also near the end of the week. Of course, that means it is time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Review 2023
My end-of-year wrap-up, thoughts and whatever else that’s helped me whilst I sink a bowl of coffee. The last part is tomorrow where I do numbers. Because as we all know, number go up.
- Part 1- Thinner seats, more passengers and more aircraft
- Part 2- Some passenger experience thoughts through the year
TRIP REPORT: Older, Yes. Wiser? No.

Next Week
We’ll be having a quiet new year, with maybe one prepared article. We’ll be heading back to normal (or whatever can be defined as normal) from Tuesday onwards. I’m sure there are plenty of headlines to process.
As there are more than a few things going on in the background.
A lot more than a few things.
Until then, Happy Landings!
