  Dear Lufthansa, Even Ryanair Is Taking Notes

  Jul 27, 20267 min

  A nature documentary about a loyalty programme in decline. Observe: the Miles & More, one of the largest specimens of its kind, attempting something rarely seen in the wild — the systematic alienation of everyone who loves it. Halved status validity. Surcharges for the first row of Business Class. An "International Surcharge" on flights that were already international. All announced as "enhancements." Meanwhile, somewhere in Ireland, Mr O'Leary is taking notes. And the herd has quietly begun its migration.

  Null Island — The Most Visited Place on Earth Doesn't Exist

  Jul 19, 20266 min

  There's a point in the Atlantic where the equator meets the prime meridian. No land. No beach. Just one yellow weather buoy named Soul, floating alone in five kilometres of water. According to the internet, millions of people are there right now. Every broken photo location, every glitched fitness app, every mistyped address — they all end up at the same spot. Map makers invented an island there to catch the errors. Then they gave it a flag. Then it started showing up on real maps. Batty on Air. Say hello to Soul.

  The Black Box — It Isn't Black. There Are Two. And One Is Listening.

  Jul 18, 20264 min

  Every commercial flight carries two of them. They're orange. They sit in the tail. One records everything the aircraft does — the other records everything anyone says in the cockpit. For the last two hours. Everything. The man who invented them was supposed to be blowing up fuel tanks. Australia — the country of the inventor — adopted the technology last. Somewhere right now, one is pinging alone at six kilometres depth. Once per second. For exactly thirty days. Batty on Air. The one about the thing nobody thinks about until they have to.

  Episode #8

  The Night That Was Divided — You Were Never Meant to Sleep Eight Hours Straight

  Jun 21, 20264 minS1

  You wake up at two in the morning. Wide awake. No reason. And your first thought is: something is wrong with me. What if nothing is wrong with you? In this episode, Batty digs into one of the most surprising stories in human history — how people slept for thousands of years before electric light changed everything. The historian who found over 2,000 references to a forgotten sleep pattern. The nine-year-old girl whose 1697 court testimony reveals a world we've completely lost. And why the "mattress company invented 8-hour sleep" story that's everywhere online is itself a myth. The full article is at battyontour.com. Best read at two in the morning. Batty on Air — travel, aviation, food, and the occasional fact that everyone believes and nobody has checked.

  Who Wrote "My Way"? (Not Sinatra. Not Who You Think.)

  Jun 6, 20263 minS1

  <p>Everyone knows "My Way." It's Sinatra. An American classic. A song about a life lived on one's own terms.</p><p>It is also, in every meaningful sense, a French song about a failing relationship — rewritten by a Canadian on a transatlantic flight, recorded by a man from Hoboken, and performed most magnificently by an Italian from Modena who sounds like he's winning an argument with the universe.</p><p>Also: the composer died trying to fix a lightbulb. In his bathtub.</p><p>Music history is considerably more complicated than the karaoke screen suggests.</p><p>🦇 battyontour.com</p>
