✈️THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT AVIATION STAGNATION

As I wait to board my 9-hour night flight - one that I’ve been told will have no internet connectivity in 2025 - I feel compelled to share some truly shocking discoveries about an industry that seems frozen in time.

🤯The Customer Disconnect:

Would you believe that while 33% of passengers complain about flight disruptions and 11% about carry-on luggage issues, airlines are obsessing over seat designs? It's like fixing the wallpaper while the house is on fire.

🤯The Technology Time Capsule

Brace yourselves for these shocking revelations:

- The FAA's NOTAM system is a 30-year-old relic, and they won't update it for at least six more years

- Major airlines are running on scheduling systems from the 1990s

- Southwest Airlines had to cancel 16,000 flights in just 10 days because their systems were essentially running on digital fossils

🫢The Innovation Desert

The numbers are staggering:

- New airline ventures have plummeted from 60 per year in 2016 to fewer than 10 in 2022

- Delta's outdated network cost them over $100 million in a single disruption

- Southwest's ancient router failure led to 2,000 flight cancellations, costing them up to $82 million

⚡️My #nostr 2sats:

As I prepare to board a flight where I'll be digitally stranded for the next 9 hours, I can't help but marvel at the irony. We have #bitcoin. We're in an age where your refrigerator can order groceries, but I won't be able to send a simple email or a zapp from what should be one of humanity's greatest technological achievements.

May your next flight be in a more innovative future.
