The latest Volume of Direction of Travel takes a trip south to the African continent, covering the airlines operating within it and those serving it from the outside - today and in the past.
Alongside maps and artists projects, it includes a real mix of stories: ‘Aircraft Stowaways’, a map and essay on people who have fled by hiding inside the wheelbay of aircraft; ‘Lost on the ground’ an essay and photos that explore the rise and fall of airline ticket offices; ‘Revue’ looks at the influence of Air France and Sabena’s inflight magazine from the 1950s. ‘Courage in the air’ celebrates the 20th anniversary of the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service; ‘Commentators of the sky’ examines the relatively new phenomenon of airport live broadcasting, which turns out not to be so new after all.
Direction of Travel is a magazine about the culture of flying. The latest Volume comes in a new size with new maps and new stories. Fifty two pages packed with stories that explore the culture of flying. Welcome onboard.
