Example
A random airport became dinner with six pilots.
Landed for fuel, planned to leave in an hour. Somebody asked where I was headed and that was the end of the schedule.
I'd like something like thisStories
Tell us what happened.
Not whether check-in was easy. Not whether the listing was accurate. What happened, and whether you would do it again.
Example
We planned coffee. It became a three-day road trip.
Neither of us had a plan past Tuesday, which turned out to be the important detail.
I'd like something like thisExample
She came for a conference and ended up harvesting grapes.
The talk finished early. Someone mentioned they were short-handed. She has been back twice since.
I'd like something like thisWhat we ask instead
How was meeting Douglas?
- Welcoming
- Interesting
- Adventurous
- Helpful
- Respectful
- Great storyteller
- Would meet again
Then one question that matters more than any of them: would you meet this person again? Yes, no, or prefer not to say. No stars, no averages, no 4.92.
A useful reference
“Doug landed at our local airport on his way west. We picked him up, went for dinner, talked aviation until midnight and toured the area the next morning.”
A useless one
“5 stars. Clean room.”
