I'm late to the party re: James' departure, I only found out on his IG last week.
No issues with his writing style & what he brought to OMAAT (besides his awesome hair) is that he covers non First or Business class & non 5 or 6 star uber luxury hotels & resorts which is quite a refreshing change from Lucky's (now Ben) sometimes OTT perspective.
I'm not a fan of Tiffany - she comes across as ... ( )

Is it just me or is Lucky (Ben .. whatever) churning out more posts daily since James' departure?
It's like a volume game for him now to make up for a writer leaving (for TPG UK ... urghhh)

And it's interesting that James' would leave a career in law to write full time for a travel blog - he did mention in his IG post that law wasn't really for him
I hope he's happy with the move & he likes working for TPG UK.
But their recent review of SQ JFK-FRA service really irked me ...

p/s TPG is definitely churning out more articles per day than any other blog out there
