AFF on Air Discussion thread

[Minimalist]

Matt I am missing the Saturday morning arrival of your podcasts. Just in case you think they are not missed!

I'm missing them also.

 

[Lost Redditor]

Yes me to, and I'd finally caught up!

 

[Townsend]

Any idea when we might expect another one?

I don't have a date for you at this point, sorry.

 

[Townsend]

I don't have a date for you at this point, sorry.

Thank you. You are missed.

 

[Mwenenzi]

Yes me to, and I'd finally caught up!

In 2020 Jacinda gave me a holiday in the Auckland Crowne Plaza. Listened to them all.
Witing for the next podcast.

 

[Guvner]

I don't have a date for you at this point, sorry.

Bump…!

 

[Townsend]

Really missing you Matt!

Hi Matt. How about we negotiate a middle ground? What about ditching the interview and just doing the first 5 minutes where you round up the news of the last fortnight? Would be less work and still scratch my podcast itch

What I am about to say is pure speculation... I wonder if the management of AFF's new owners, Point Hacks is redirecting the attention of AFF staff to concentrate on revenue-generating activities, which perhaps the podcast does not a prime example of.

Really missing you Matt!

Maybe the new owners of AFF have outsourced the podcast to the business's that operate airline call centres

Hi folks,

At this stage we are planning to bring the podcast back at some point next year, although it might be in a slightly different format. We'll give another update when there is more news on this.

It used to be great for mowing the lawn on the weekend

Can we get a podcast onto how Bonza failed now?

Hi folks,
At this stage we are planning to bring the podcast back at some point next year, although it might be in a slightly different format. We'll give another update when there is more news on this.

Am sure there is a lot of work recording and editing for a ~45-60 minute podcast. And getting interesting topics. But something myself and many others liked a lot from the posts in this thread.

I note that the (newish) AFF owner Point Hacks used to have podcasts but no longer does (last was 22 Oct 2022). IMHO the AFF podcasts were far more interesting.

So is it RIP AFF Podcasts?

 

[AFF Editor]

I know many of you have been missing the podcast. Thank you for all the messages!

I'm pleased to announce that we've just launched a brand new podcast in partnership with Point Hacks called Travel Pointers! The first episode is already available to listen to:

Travel Pointers Episode 1 - Around the World with Qantas Points & Central Asia Calling

In episode 1 of the Travel Pointers podcast, Matt Graham and Chris Chamberlin discuss flying around the world with Qantas Points, and why Central Asia is well worth a visit.

This podcast takes the best parts of AFF on Air and the old 'Points of View' podcast, and is co-hosted by myself and Chris Chamberlin, the news editor at Point Hacks.
