As a BA employee and an IHG Diamond member (earnt independently not 1 point or night via BA) I’ve been an avid follower of HFP for a few years now and I recommend you daily. However as an English Literature Graduate the spelling, syntax and grammar on HFP from Rob and Rhys has always grated on me. Are you using AI, spell check (is it still a thing) or are you simply speaking to your tech for your articles and then not proof reading? This has been going on for years and it’s frustrating. Given your often petty gripes around airlines and hotels, air vents, plastic wrap, plastic cups vs glasses etc (I’m Cabin Crew) I’m surprised with such a well established website and reputation you still allow poor spelling, grammar, syntax and general poor journalism to be published before proof reading and double checking? I still love HFP but it’s been a few years now and the minor faults are unnecessary after all these years.

Did your English Literature degree also teach you an aversion to commas and paragraphs?

BTW, graduate should not be capitalised, proofreading is a single word, and well-established requires a hyphen. Additionally, your repetition of words is somewhat grating.
