Video Podcast: When America sneezes…

written by Robyn Tongol | May 7, 2025

As tariffs and border crackdowns continue stateside, the number of Australians taking trips to the US has slumped, with travel to Asia surging instead – a trend noticed by Flight Centre, which is taking a hit to its bottom line.

Adam and Jake discuss what the Trump administration’s policies abroad could do – and have already done – to aviation in Australia.

Plus, is there a culture problem at general aviation businesses?
