It seems like there are millions of podcasts to choose from these days, so how are we supposed to cut through the noise and find the best ones worth subscribing to? Instead of trying to find a needle in a haystack, here is a list of my favorite travel-related podcasts for your enjoyment.
Don’t see your favorite podcast on the list? Shoot me a note on Twitter or Instagram so I can give it a listen!
Non-Rev Lounge
If you want to step up your non-rev travel skills, Non-Rev Lounge has you covered. Listeners get an inside peek into airline life because the core cast is made up of a ramp agent, a gate agent, and a flight attendant.
Tyler, Monique, and Lara are a joy to listen to. It doesn’t matter if they are recounting non-rev travel stories or just venting about their day at the airport; this trio creates engaging & hilarious episodes.
The Next Trip
Doug & Drew produce a fantastic podcast that focuses on aviation news & travel. With Doug’s pilot experience & Drew’s career as an airline operations manager, this duo offers a unique perspective of the aviation world. The Next Trip delivers on their mission to create and engage a network of aviation and travel enthusiasts.
The Grumpy Stew
Being a flight attendant can be an incredibly rewarding experience, but everyday isn’t perfect. Dylan (aka the “world’s grumpiest flight attendant”) gives listeners his uncensored hot takes about bad passengers & the latest travel news. Built by a flight attendant for flight attendants, this podcast is full of hilarious gems.
If you loathe clueless passengers & crave the drama at cruising altitude, The Grumpy Stew is for you. If memes are more your speed, don’t miss out on following their Instagram, too.
Miles & Pints
Beer can be a great reflection of local cultures & ingredients, and nobody knows that better than the team at Miles & Pints. Jeff & Derrick are well-versed in travel rewards, but their deep knowledge of beer lets this podcast shine above other creators who share information about loyalty programs & travel credit cards.
While this Miles & Pints isn’t specifically built for non-rev travelers, I trust this podcast to deliver solid brewery recommendations paired with the actionable news from the points & miles world to help me travel for cheap.
