Welcome to WingTips Weekly, the only travel roundup that doesn’t require a boarding pass, just a decent Wi-Fi signal and a mild obsession with tier points.
Each week, we slice through the fog of press releases, airline tantrums, and points inflation to bring you the UK travel headlines that actually matter. Whether it’s a new lounge in Luton (please, no), a loyalty scheme plot twist, or an airline quietly cancelling your 5am departure, we’ve got it covered.
Think of this as your fast-track lane to everything happening across the runways, railways, and ridiculous redemption offers of the week. No jargon, no waffle, just pure, unfiltered avgeek nectar.

That’s all for this edition of WingTips Weekly. The points have been earned, the upgrades have (mostly) cleared, and another week in the wild world of travel is behind us.
Still, taxiing for more? Scroll through the logbook. We’ve got deep dives, reviews, and the occasional rant about BA’s boarding groups.
We’ll be back next week with more chaos from the clouds. Until then, fly smart, book clever, and never trust an airline that says “light refreshments included.” And as always make sure to follow us on our social media channels such as Instagram and X a.k.a Twitter.
