The Professor’s Minute Minute – August 3, 2025


Direct is dead. Pets are in. UX from porn. And Oshkosh? Always magic.


So much for Direct.

The final big UK brand selling direct has been gobbled up. Who wins when the last ones fall?

Pets in cabin? It’s a thing now.

Italy and Virgin Australia are opening the doors (and aisles) to cats and pups. No emotional support iguanas… yet. (You’ll have to look that up yourself—true story.)

OnlyFans as a UX lesson?

Yes. The adult industry has long pioneered digital experience. Ignore it at your peril—even if you don’t get it.

Oshkosh magic

You missed it. It was thrilling. Thousands of planes landing by color dot and radio jazz.

Track flights like a pro (or a pilot)

Wader Aviation’s slick platform is worth your time—even if you’re just stalking your cousin’s Ryanair ride.

Quirky: Most popular in-cabin dog breed for first class travelers in 2024?

The French Bulldog. Loud snores, (some farts), zero chill, infinite loyalty. Just like some status flyers you know.
